SANTA CLARA, Calif.: Chegg, Inc. (NYSE: CHGG), the leading student-first connected learning platform, today announced the appointment of Deena Bahri as Chief Marketing Officer, effective March 27, 2024.
During her 20-year career, Ms. Bahri has held key marketing positions at innovative tech-driven brands including Birchbox, Gilt Groupe, and Reebok. She was most recently Chief Marketing Officer of leading current culture marketplace StockX, where she led the global marketing and merchandising teams.
