Khobi Brooklyn, who was head of global communications at Tesla and led comms for Nike’s Converse division, is joining wellness company Hims & Hers Health as chief communications officer.
Brooklyn was most recently SVP of communications at self-driving technology company Aurora, leading all communications and marketing efforts. She has also served as director, product communications and brand marketing at Square.
At Hims & Hers, Brooklyn will oversee the company’s communications function which includes corporate, consumer and internal, reporting to the CEO.
"She is a powerhouse, and the sheer grit and hustle she’s brought to the table from the get-go is truly impressive. There’s no doubt in my mind that Khobi is going to fundamentally flip the script on how we show up and share our robust and growing business,” said Hims & Hers co-founder and CEO Andrew Dudum.
