The CEO of Twitch blends a background in computer science and theater, contributing to both technology and creativity in his role. After earning a Ph.D. in AI and working for major companies, he started running to enhance his health, transitioning to activities like biking and swimming, even competing in Ironman events. His daily routine involves waking up around 7 a.m. for running, usually without an alarm due to his remote work setup, while attempting to limit distractions from devices.
My path led me deep into tech: earning a Ph.D. in AI and computer science and working at places like NASA, Google, YouTube, and Nextdoor.
Being CEO of Twitch gives me the rare opportunity to bring both sides of myself - technologist and creative - into a single role.
I usually wake up naturally. I don't worry about an alarm clock. I try to exercise in the morning unless I have a super early meeting.
In 2017, I started running regularly… I gamified it and it stuck. Then I started biking, I started swimming, and then I did two Ironmans.
