We’re gearing up to announce something very exciting that will transform the way businesses engage and interact
on Reddit.
To celebrate, we’re hosting an intimate panel discussion where we’ll be revealing all the juicy details. In true Reddit fashion, we’ll be doing it over delicious bites, custom drinks and award winning music from a top local DJ – this one is not to be missed.
It’s imperative for businesses to rethink their organic and paid online strategies to not just show up in the right context, but to participate in their audience's conversations.
Join us as we bring together key voices across the online ecosystem: brands with first-hand experience in online communities, Reddit community moderators fostering this participation, and industry leaders shepherding this change. These leaders will discuss the new tools and frontiers of social engagement, as well as how to effectively navigate them.
Roxy Young is Reddit’s Chief Marketing and Consumer Experience Officer and the first Latinx female to join Reddit’s C-Suite. She is focused on building the brand’s recognition, relevance and reputation, and leading the charge to make Reddit a daily destination for a more diverse group of people, all over the world. Roxy led Reddit’s first ever -- and now award winning -- consumer marketing campaigns including UpTheVote, the celebrated voter initiative to empower users to vote with the same enthusiasm in the lead-up to the 2020 Election, as they do when voting on Reddit. Roxy was also at the helm of Reddit’s blink-and-you’ll-miss-it Super Bowl commercial, leading the team that conceived, crafted, booked and funded a 5-second spot -- that many dubbed the “winner” -- in less than one week. With more than 20 years’ experience working with major brands including Sephora, Gap and Netflix, Roxy’s experience spans all areas of marketing. Roxy earned her bachelor's degree from Texas A&M University and her M.B.A from the University of Notre Dame.
