Romy is highly motivated to bring better performance and productivity to our companies and our country by making the workplace work better for women. As the Co-founder and President of Fairygodboss, Romy leads a business with the mission to improve the workplace for women everywhere. Before venturing into the crazy world of entrepreneurship, Romy ran digital advertising sales and operations at The Wall Street Journal, and also worked in marketing at Google and Estee Lauder. Romy studied American studies, literature and art at Yale and many more practical things at the Kellogg School of Management at North-western. Romy is a frequent speaker and contributor to Fortune, Huffington Post, and Inc. She is a proud mother of two, wife to a very supportive husband, devoted yogi and crossword puzzle lover. We had a wide-ranging discussion that included Fairygodboss’ origin story, and how the pandemic has affected gender equality; highlighting the mass exodus of women from the workforce. It was a really enjoyable, timely discussion and we hope you enjoy it.
