Previously, she led eBay’s global consumer selling business, where she’s responsible for driving strategy and execution based on customer needs and market dynamics.

During that time she has held a variety of diverse roles, including leading the strategy efforts at eBay, PayPal and Skype; leading Consumer Products at Skype; serving as Chief of Staff to the CEO; and acting as General Manager of PayPal Mobile.
