Consumer Safety

Reddit – Ongoing

Project Overview

Designing scalable abuse detection and mitigation experiences focused specifically on chat safety — a largely unmoderated space on the platform — and tools to aid moderators across Reddit's ecosystem of 97M+ daily active users. My work improves transparency, communication, and support for users, moderators, and admins.

Contributions

  • Created detailed product strategy and design documentation, including RICE frameworks, multi-phase product ideations, and feature enhancement roadmaps, to align user needs with business objectives and platform safety goals and aid in the development of long-term strategic roadmaps.

  • Advocated for and defined safety initiatives in the previously underserved chat space by integrating user research insights, industry best practices, and cross-functional perspectives into strategy.

  • Partnered with design, product management, research, and engineering teams to develop and refine solutions that enhance platform integrity and empower moderators with improved tools.

  • Conducted competitor and product audits to determine landscape, parity needs and other opportunities in the chat safety and moderation tooling space.

  • Developed a multitude of explorations and prototypes, presenting them to cross-functional stakeholders and leadership.

Impact

While specific designs remain confidential, my work has strengthened Reddit's approach to chat safety and provided moderators with more effective tools, addressing a critical gap in the platform's content moderation capabilities.
