About Aayush Phumbhra

Aayush Phumbhra is Co-Founder and Senior Vice President of Chegg, where he is involved in the key strategic decisions with the current and future direction of the company. He leads logistics and infrastructure deployment and is largely responsible for scaling Chegg's supply chain to keep pace with its torrid growth. Inspired by his personal experience and frustration with his own university's bookstore, Aayush believes in the mission of Chegg: to enable college students to save a significant amount of money by letting them rent textbooks rather than buy them. Prior to the founding of Chegg, Aayush was an analyst at Wells Fargo Home Mortgage and a management and technology consultant at BearingPoint. Aayush holds a master of business administration in marketing and accounting from Iowa State University. Before moving to the United States in 2001, Aayush launched two companies, one of which introduced peanut butter and chocolate spreads to his native country, India.
