Meet RebelMouse Founder + CEO Andrea Breanna

Andrea Breanna is the founder and CEO of RebelMouse, the leading AI-enabled publishing solution for both brands and new media companies that reaches over 100 million people monthly. Before launching RebelMouse, Andrea was the CTO of The Huffington Post, where she joined in the first year of the company's life and ran the product, design, and engineering teams. After The Huffington Post was sold to AOL, Andrea ran the same groups for all of AOL's media properties.

After AOL acquired The Huffington Post, Andrea saw what a custom CMS looked like for the first time. She inherited 53 properties built on dozens of different content management systems, but soon realized that they were all built by IT people who didn't fully grasp the concepts of traffic and distribution. That’s why she created RebelMouse, an evolving, modern publishing platform that keeps up with the speed of the industry and the diversity of the open web.

A Note From Andrea on the Importance of Online Advertising

“As a young transgender person growing up in the 80s and 90s, I felt alone until I discovered the internet, where I found people like me and could express my true identity. Today, I am disappointed by a growing misunderstanding of how media works among advocates and policymakers who continue to call for the restriction of relevant advertising.
I believe that relevant advertising, which generates significant revenue for small publishers, is crucial to the survival of diverse online communities. Without it, many voices and ideas would disappear or only be available to those who can afford to pay. That’s why I believe it is critical for there to be mutual support between advertisers, publishers, and consumers to ensure that diverse voices and communities thrive.”
