Jenny Tsai, Jenna Lloyd, and I come at the subject from slightly different vantage points but were all aligned on what matters most.

- Kevin Petry - shared thisThe good stuff! #Groupon alumni’s very own, and one of the very first “remember when” early days good guys. Been following yours and Rachaad’s journey and looking forward to the segment Sunday night! Go Bucs! Go Humble Nut Butter! Go #Big Brothers and Sisters of America!- Kevin Petry - shared thisI don't talk about it much on this platform, but a huge part of my life is my relationship w/ Buccaneers Rookie Running Back, Rachaad White. As my older brother Dan says, "we need more people to root for these days." I hope Rachaad can be that person for some of you out there. Tune in to Kate Snow (a "Big" herself) this Sunday night (10/16) on NBC News to find out why I love the guy so much. If you've ever considered joining Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, hopefully this will encourage you to join. It changes lives. #mentorship #GoBucs

- Kevin Petry - shared this- Kevin Petry - shared thisWatch the full trailer for NORK!👇🏾 (adding the YouTube link to the comment section because LinkedIn doesn’t like YouTube) In this sharp dramedy series, two twenty- somethings decide to ditch traditional jobs to start a tech company in their hometown of Newark, NJ, where they encounter challenges from shadowy lenders, overbearing parents, condescending investors, and of course, the city of Newark itself.

Instawork is the leading flexible labor platform, and our mission is to create economic opportunities for local businesses and hourly workers across the globe. I was drawn to Instawork by the exceptional leaders I met throughout the process, the unparalleled value of the platform, the strength of the team, and the opportunity ahead. I’m grateful to Sumir Meghani for the opportunity to lead this exceptional team, and I'm excited to be reunited after our incredible run at Groupon. We are actively hiring across a number of roles and are building something truly special. If you are looking for an opportunity to join a high-performing team, check out our open roles (link in first comment). As with all new beginnings, there is also an end and I want to thank the amazing team at BILL for the opportunity to lead the talented spend & expense and enterprise supplier growth teams. Wishing the entire BILL team continued success.

- Kevin Petry - liked thisGrateful, humbled, and excited for what’s ahead! Stepping into the Chief Operating Officer role at Vision Creative Group is an exciting new chapter for me and a proud moment in my career. Having started my journey with Vision almost 25 years ago after being a client myself, I know firsthand what makes this agency so special. My focus as COO will be driving the strategic framework and agency operations that keep our team nimble, our processes smooth, and our client work at its absolute best. Thank you, Sharon Petry, for your unwavering leadership and belief in me. And, congratulations to Kelly DiGiesi. I couldn't ask for a better team as we lead Vision into the future! #MakingPenguinsFly #VisionCreativeGroup #COO- Kevin Petry - liked thisIt is my absolute pleasure to announce the promotion of two key members of my leadership team, who will continue to carry forth the legacy and purpose of our agency. Kelly DiGiesi, who has led our creative team with passion, heart, and smarts for over 25 years, is officially our new Chief Creative Director. Alongside Kelly, Lori Thompson is being promoted to Chief Operating Officer, overseeing strategy and operations. Over her 24 years at Vision, Lori’s incredible ability to strategize and provide insight-based solutions for both our agency and our clients has been extraordinary. I am proud and honored to work alongside both of them. Please join me in celebrating their dedication to making penguins fly!

As I reflect on my time spent there, I am filled with gratitude, fulfillment, and excitement for my future. I want to express my thanks to Kristine Westenberger and Hans de Waal for making this internship possible, and I also want to shout out Jeffrey Corbran and Sahil Mhatre for being such insightful and kind co-workers and mentors throughout this whole experience. In addition, I am thrilled to share that I will continue to work with Medin remotely throughout my fall semester at Clemson. As the beginning of my senior year as a Mechanical Engineering student at Clemson draws near, the learning and behind-the-scenes perspective that I gained will be invaluable to my career.

- Kevin Petry - liked this- Kevin Petry - liked thisWhen you start a company, your focus is entirely on the mission: solving a problem and serving your community. You don’t do it for the accolades, but when an organization like JCI USA notices your work, it is a profound reminder of why we keep pushing forward. Today, I am equal parts humbled and honored to share that I have been selected as one of JCI (Junior Chamber International)’s “Ten Outstanding Young Americans” (#TOYA) for 2026. This award has a prestigious history honoring young Americans who have excelled in their fields - including science, entrepreneurship, military service, philanthropy, and the arts - since 1938. To be counted among previous winners like President John F. Kennedy, Elvis Presley, and Orson Welles is a thrill. However, this recognition isn't just about me; it is a testament to the incredible community behind ReBokeh Vision Technologies, Inc. Every day, we work to build a more accessible world for the low vision community, and this award shines a bright spotlight on the importance of that mission. A massive thank you to #JCI USA for this incredible honor, to our amazing team, and to everyone who has supported me and ReBokeh on this journey. We are just getting started! #Accessibility #a11y #DisabilityInclusion

- Kevin Petry - liked this- Kevin Petry - liked thisI’m incredibly honored and excited to step into the role of Head of the Commercial Bank at TD, now with an expanded mandate that brings together Corporate & Specialty Finance, Regional Commercial and Small Business. When I joined TD in 2023, I couldn’t have imagined the incredible people, clients, and opportunities that would be ahead. I’m proud to take on this role at such an important time for our business. What excites me most is the opportunity to get even closer to our clients and colleagues —to listen, to learn, and to continue building a strong, dedicated team focused on delivering for those we serve every day while building trust and partnership. I’m grateful for the support and partnership across this organization, and I’m energized for what’s ahead. This next chapter represents an exciting new journey in my career, and I’m looking forward to all that we will accomplish together in 2026 and beyond.

- Kevin Petry - liked this- Kevin Petry - liked thisAfter nine years, I've left Asana, and I take with me an overwhelming sense of gratitude and pride. Grateful to Dustin Moskovitz and Justin Rosenstein for creating a category, product and company that inspired a mission so impactful that it brought together the most ambitious and purposeful group of people I've ever had the opportunity to work and learn alongside. Grateful to the incredible leaders I had the benefit of learning from over the years. Those that took a chance on me, taught me their craft, pushed me to take on more, supported the bets I took, and most importantly, allowed me to explore and define my own authentic version of leadership. Oliver Jay, Ed McDonnell, Anne Raimondi, Sanj Bhayro, Eda Gultekin, Anna Binder and Tim Wan - THANK YOU! I am the leader I am today because of the example you set, and the space you gave me to explore. And to the APJ team, gosh, what a blast. Thankful for each of you, the laughs we shared, the goals we achieved, and the friendships we built. It's hard to believe what we accomplished together in these last 3 years, and I hope you are as proud as I am. After 2 international moves, 2 children added to the family, 1 IPO, 30 quarter closes, countless teammates hired and onboarded ... I'm taking some time off - to do school pick-ups, coach first-grade basketball, and plan some family holidays not attached to business trips. I look forward to exploring what's next once my family is sick of me. 🙂
