Rebecca Shostak

Rebecca Shostak is the co-founder and CEO of Flodesk, a design-first email marketing platform that reached $36 million in annual recurring revenue without a single dollar of outside funding. A Silicon Valley native who taught herself Photoshop at 10, designed merchandise for Rihanna and Linkin Park, and built a company that Y Combinator rejected - then outgrew - Shostak turned a template shop frustration into a platform serving over 100,000 small businesses worldwide. Now steering Flodesk into AI, she spent five months in Vietnam with her engineering team building proprietary technology and filing seven patents.
