Allbirds has appointed Emily Weiss, Founder and CEO of Glossier, and Mandy Fields, CFO of e.l.f Beauty, to Allbirds’s Board of Directors, bringing their expertise in growing successful standout consumer brands in saturated spaces. 

With these two additional board appointments, Allbirds will gain the invaluable learnings Weiss and Fields bring with them from the beauty space’s unique knowledge of brand loyalty and consumer relationships.
