Lead Assistant Editor

I'm a Trust & Safety leader with 15 years of experience across the industry, known for building inclusive and robust T&S and Community functions from the ground up. I thrive on making sense of complex online integrity challenges and translating them into actionable strategies. My diverse background spans policy, operations, business strategy and development, and advocacy, all united by a commitment to positive impact.

My current focus is on shaping the future of online safety through artificial intelligence. At Musubi, I'm leveraging cutting-edge LLM technology to innovate content moderation. I'm leading the charge in developing prompt engineering best practices for Trust & Safety, ensuring responsible AI innovation for a safer, more inclusive digital environment.

We hear about T&S layoffs all the time, but there is one area of T&S that is actually growing, and is likely to stay very stable.

Data from Trust and Safety Jobs shows 1 in 5 (ONE IN FIVE!) new T&S roles so far in 2025 have been in Policy & Compliance.

And 14% of those are AI-specific. 

This shift is driven almost entirely by regulation (like the DSA). And online safety regulation isn't slowing down any time soon. 

It’s creating a new, stable career path, but it requires a very different set of skills than more traditional T&S ops roles. 

It's important to note: there are career compliance professionals who have those skills already and can transfer them to T&S easily, so not all these jobs may be going to T&S veterans. 

❓ If you're working in a job like this -- how's it going? What should people do to prepare for a role like this?
