About April Underwood, Angel Investor

For 20 years, I was an operator at high-growth companies, including Google (2007-2009), Twitter (2010-2015), and Slack -- where I led product from 2015-2019 and was ultimately Chief Product Officer. I started my career as an engineer in 2001, transitioned into product in 2004, and since then have worked in product, platform, or partnerships roles at these amazing companies during hypergrowth. I co-founded an investment collective where I've personally backed over 50 companies as an angel investor, and our group has cumulatively backed over 150 companies. I am a public company board director and advise CEOs, CPOs, and executive teams on product and platform strategy as well as company scaling, especially through rapid growth. I'm also a frequent speaker on technology and have been covered in or on stage by Fast Company, Fortune, Forbes, WSJ, and many more.
