will bolster our efforts to deliver shareholder value by executing
on our strategic initiatives and investing in our product roadmap,
particularly in services.”
“George has been a valued member of the Yelp Board, providing
guidance and leadership that have significantly contributed to our
growth and success over the years," added Stoppelman. “We are
deeply grateful for his dedication and the lasting impact he has
made.”
“Dan's proven track record of driving business growth and
innovation align perfectly with our ambitions for Yelp's future,
making him an outstanding addition to the Yelp Board,” said Diane
Irvine, chair of the Yelp Board of Directors. “As we welcome Dan, I
also want to honor George's significant contributions to our Board.
His dedication and insights have been instrumental to Yelp’s
progress over the years. We are thankful for his service and wish
him all the best moving forward.”
Jedda has served as the chief financial officer at Roku, a
leading global TV streaming platform, since May 2023. Prior to
joining Roku, he served as the chief financial officer at Stitch
Fix, Inc., and spent 15 years at Amazon.com, Inc., where he notably
contributed as vice president and chief financial officer for
digital video, digital music, and advertising. He holds a B.S. in
accounting and finance from the University of St. Thomas and a
M.B.A. from the University of Minnesota.
“I am excited to join Yelp's Board of Directors and work
alongside a team that is passionate about creating a vibrant
community of businesses and consumers,” said Jedda. "Yelp is a
