Hi all, I'm Ben Geller, most recently Director of Product Marketing and Demand Generation at You.com

đź‘‹ Based in: Los Angeles, CA
🧠 Top of mind: Just finished Priya Parker's "The Art of Gathering" and can't stop thinking about it. So much of what we do as PMMs is bring people around a table to solve hard problems—Priya gives you a framework on how to do this with intention and purpose. Highly recommend.
đź’¬ Ask me about: AI startups and being a founding PMM. I've done it twice, at ZipRecruiter from early days through IPO, and at You.com from Series A through a $1.5B Series C.
🍦 Fun fact: Outside of work I love ceramics. There's no better feeling than creating something with your hands.
