Chief Brand Officer

A career of brand-focused creative direction has kept me focused on art, copy, and content to reach the audience with a true and compelling message within a design that resonates with them. When I’m not advocating for a new world with true ridesharing at the Roam™ marketplace, you’ll probably find me shifting gears in a standard transmission 5-speed on my way from Oakland to the Berkeley Tennis Club.

Jan Loescher

Chief Technology Officer

I’m inspired to make ridesharing simple, reliable, and genuinely enjoyable by digging into technical details that make the app feel effortless both behind the wheel and in the passenger seat. My first startup of five+ years led me to co-found the Roam™ Marketplace and I also serve on the board of the German Ridesharing Association. Outside of work, you may find me skiing, sailing, or tinkering with new tech. Splitting time in Paris, Brussels, and Germany, my international outlook shapes how I approach challenges—openly, persistently, and always moving forward.

Our human connections are special. They make a meaningful impact on all of us. In this context, a trip is just a means to a larger end. But what if “getting there” was easier, more affordable, and also special? It might lead to “being there” more often, for all of us. This is why our venture is all about community.
