Roxy Young
Roxy Young is Reddit’s CMO 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. In the past 12 months, Roxy has 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. More recently, Roxy was 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. Recently named one of Campaign US’ Top 50 “trailblazing” CMOs, Roxy has more than 20 years’ experience working with major brands including Sephora, Gap and Netflix and her experience spans all areas of marketing.
