Taktile

Taktile is proud to announce Kiana Davari as VP of People.

As the new champion of the Taktile experience, Kiana is helping to elevate the team’s culture, talent, and industry leadership.

Meet Kiana Davari: Leading the vision for people and culture at Taktile

Kiana brings 15 years of experience shaping organizations and their people. She has made a lasting impact at companies including Facebook, Lyft, and Sorare, where she helped build thriving teams and cultures.

At Lyft, Kiana spent more than eight years driving the company’s rapid growth, scaling from its early days to nearly 5,000 employees worldwide and through an IPO. She is now excited to bring that expertise to Taktile as it expands across markets and regions.

Kiana shares, “My experience across talent, M&A, and scaling organizations has shown me that people drive the most enduring change. At Taktile, my focus is on reimagining the way we operate and grow, so we can unlock our full potential and position ourselves for lasting impact in the industry.

Navigating growth through Taktile’s next defining chapter

As Taktile welcomes some of its largest customers to date, Kiana will ensure the team is equipped for the challenge: ready to scale with excellence while staying true to Taktile’s culture of innovation.

Already, she is bringing fresh ideas, attracting innovative thinkers, and cultivating an environment where talented builders can do their best work.

“Kiana’s depth of experience at fast-growing organizations, including helping Lyft grow from the ground up, comes at a key moment for Taktile,” says Co-Founder and CEO Maik Taro Wehmeyer.

Maik continues, “She knows what it takes to build great teams and create an environment where people can thrive, and I couldn’t be happier to have her on this journey with us.”

Kiana’s arrival marks a defining step in building not only a world-class team, but also a culture where innovation and growth flourish.
