an Uber move…

29 Jul

 

Today marks the beginning of the next chapter of my career. After 3 years of consulting and 1.5 years of private equity, working for large, brand-name, established companies, I’m taking the leap to start-up world and joining Uber. In my opinion, Uber is one of the most disruptive, beloved (just search Twitter for @Uber!), and exciting companies in the market right now and I am thrilled to be joining the team! I will be serving as the Chicago Operations Manager and helping to launch service here in the Windy City. With harsh winters, a rickety and nearly bankrupt public transit system, a near-universal cabbie allergy to credit cards, along with a hot foodie and nightlife scene, five major professional sports teams and two international airports, the need and value proposition for Uber Chicago is clear.

I’m super energized to dig in with Uber. I think the team is building a new and truly transformative local transportation solution and I’m fired up to help bring that to Chicago with the unique experience, data, and customer service that Uber has come to stand for. It’s game time!
