Gerson is a highly experienced marketing executive with a track record of working with leading technology companies to design and implement high-impact strategies that capture mind share and market share. As Instagram’s 30th employee, Gerson built the company’s global community function before transitioning to product marketing — where he launched and scaled some of the photo-sharing app’s most successful features.

Over the course of his nearly seven years with Instagram, he also led Instagram’s global pride initiatives as part of his own personal commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. Since then, Gerson has spent the past two years working with early-stage, high-growth start-ups like Polarr and Avenue 8 to build and scale their marketing teams.

“Updater is singlehandedly redefining the moving experience by helping you Facebooktake control of your move so you can feel at home faster, ” said Gerson. “This powerful value proposition has been well received by movers, strategic partners and investors, as demonstrated by Updater’s market share and rapid growth. I’m thrilled to join the Updater team and be part of building their next chapter.”

Gerson started his distinguished career at Facebook and has gone on to serve as a trusted community builder and marketing advisor to companies such as Explorest and Soho House. He received his bachelor’s degree in English from Stanford University and spent time studying at Oxford University in England.

Gerson also spends significant time working with non-profit organizations like the James Beard Foundation and Djerassi Resident Artists program — as well as providing pro-bono mentorship to LGBTQ+ emerging businesses.
