Meet Our Onboarding Team
We're looking forward to welcoming you to the team. You'll have an opportunity to meet us during your first week, but we thought you might like to know what you're getting into!
I've been a New York girl my whole life, but the island edition. Being raised bilingual has developed my love for linguistics and a taste for traveling. In my personal time, I'm usually learning a new language or reading up on different recipes to test out in my kitchen. There's almost nothing quite as satisfying as hosting the perfect dinner party for loved ones!
I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, and I still call it home! I’m fortunate to be part of the People Operations team here at Yext, and I love supporting the team day-to-day. In my spare time, you’ll find me reading (thrillers are my favorite), exploring new restaurants around the city, and, most importantly, spending quality time with my border collie rescue, Bailey.
Originally from Australia, I now call London home and love the city’s energy and endless opportunities for fun. As part of the People Operations team, I’m passionate about creating a smooth, welcoming experience for new joiners. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me exploring hidden corners of London, shamelessly binging reality TV, or planning my next weekend getaway.
I was born and raised in London, and I’ve called this vibrant city home my entire life! I love wandering through its streets and uncovering hidden gems — there’s always something new to explore. When I’m not wandering aimlessly, you’ll find me experimenting in the kitchen (or at least pretending to), diving into a good book (or more likely binge-watching reality TV), or jetting off to Dubai to spend time with my adorable nephews.
Born and raised in New Jersey, I always dreamed of moving to NYC, and now, after almost 4 years here, I couldn’t be happier! At Yext, I’ve had the privilege of being a member and lead of Empower, our Women’s Employee Resource Group. Through Empower, I’ve connected with incredible Yexters, given back to my community, and developed valuable leadership skills.
I’m Brooklyn-born and raised, proudly embracing my city-girl vibe! In my spare time, you’ll often find me binging a good 90s TV show or taking walks around my neighborhood. I love having meaningful conversations and connecting with new people. Recently, I’ve been exploring health and wellness, finding ways to balance my lifestyle, and focusing on feeling my absolute best!
I grew up on Long Island, NY, and now call New York City home. I’m excited to be part of the People Operations team at Yext and have already learned so much from my amazing team since joining in early 2025. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with friends, trying new fitness classes, visiting family, and even dog walking as a fun side hustle!

Our Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion
Diversity and inclusion aren't just buzzwords to us; they are fundamental to building a strong, supportive company, workplace culture, and community. But we don't just talk, we take action. In 2021, we formed a dedicated Diversity & Inclusion team to weave these ideals throughout our business – not just on paper but in real actions, impactful policies, and meaningful programs that contribute to a more inclusive and equitable community.
