Fractional Trust & Safety
I help fast-moving companies ship ambitious products without stepping on landmines. At speed, leaders often know something feels risky — but they don’t know what matters, what doesn’t, or what to do next. I step in at the director level to turn uncertainty into safety features, technical systems, playbooks, and policy—quickly, directly, and durably.
