Ruby Kolesky, CEO @ Joyous

Ruby first set out to be a stand-up comedian, but when that didn’t work out, she became a software engineer instead. That mix of humor, curiosity, and a deep understanding of people, combined with strong technical skill, has shaped her approach to building technology. She’s known as a forward-thinking product and data science leader, and a new kind of technology executive who blends strategy, empathy, fun and innovation to drive meaningful change.
