The Roam™  TEAM

One team, one dream.

The Roam™ app let’s you share rides with others in your communities by connecting verified members who have overlapping routes for shared trips.

Hop in, there's an empty seat.

Vivek Hutheesing

Chief Executive Officer

Since reciprocity is innate, the opportunity to increase the quality and quantity of our human connections is a special one. And if this were to have a positive impact on each of us, the ripple effects would be transformational for society. In this context, we view a car trip as a means to a larger end. But to “be there”, you have to “get there”. So if our tech makes it easy, affordable and rewarding for everyone to get there, we’re more than confident our users will do the rest. This is why our venture is all about community.

Jan Loescher

Chief Technology Officer

After more than five years building my first startup, I went on to co-found the Roam™ Marketplace and currently serve on the board of the German Ridesharing Association. Outside of work, I enjoy skiing, sailing, and experimenting with new technologies. Splitting my time between France, Belgium, and Germany has shaped an international mindset that informs how I approach challenges: openly, persistently, and with a strong bias toward progress.

Holden Hume

Chief Brand Officer

A career in brand and marketing-focused creative direction keeps me focused on art, copy, and storytelling. To best reach our Roam™ app audience, I'm committed to a true and compelling brand narrative that resonates globally. When not advocating for a new world of true ridesharing with the Roam™ community, you’ll most often find me stick-shifting gears around Oakland or driving to the Berkeley Tennis Club.

Estéfanny Mendonça

Data Analytics

Outside of work, Estefanny enjoys hiking with her dog, joining city book clubs, and staying active in climate and cycling groups. At Roam, she brings clarity to complex data as a Data Analyst and Researcher, drawing on her background in urban planning and sustainable development.
