Lybra Clemons joined Twilio in 2020 as the company's first Chief Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Officer. Clemons will be responsible for guiding and scaling inclusion strategy and diversity initiatives across the company’s global workforce.
“Lybra’s experience building inclusive and equitable environments within multinational companies makes her a perfect fit for this role,” said Jeff Lawson, co-founder and CEO at Twilio. “We are fortunate to benefit from her leadership through our next phase of growth, as we work to increase diverse representation at every level of Twilio.”
Since joining Twilio in 2020, Clemons has helped start several racial justice and equity initiatives, including a leadership development program, career planning for Black and Latinx “Twilions,” and a software engineering apprenticeship. Her inclusive recruitment strategies have contributed to their workforce being 38.7% women and almost 40% POC, according to their 2020 DEI report.
Prior to Twilio, Clemons was the Global Head of Diversity and Inclusion at PayPal, where she was responsible for overseeing and managing all global diversity initiatives, including developing a framework for diversity talent analytics, engagement, and recruitment. She has held senior-level diversity and inclusion roles at Morgan Stanley and American Express. Clemons brings her proven expertise advising global organizations on diversity and inclusion programs, implementing corporate strategies that result in stronger retention and higher engagement, and building high-performance teams to Twilio.
