Rover was a notable stop in Chris’s experiences, joining the company post-Series A when they were just 30 people. During his time there, he was responsible for building and launching multiple new lines of business, which today collectively make up for half of Rover’s booking volume as a public company. He saw the team grow from 30 to 500 people, taking in the lessons of building and scaling a startup.
