Hi, I'm Dan Shipper and I’m thinking things through.
I’m an entrepreneur and writer living in New York City. Right now, I'm co-founder and CEO at Every.
About me...
Before Every, I started a company called Firefly with some friends while we were in college. In 2014, we sold it to Pega (NASDQA:PEGA).
At Pega we brought the Firefly product to some of the largest financial services and insurance companies in the world. I was the principal on the Firefly business, and was responsible for running product management, engineering, marketing strategy, sales training to Pega’s 300-person salesforce.
