With his appointment as CFO, Mr. Okupe brings to Hims & Hers a wealth of experience in financial leadership positions at high-growth, B2C companies that have successfully transformed entire industries.

“We’re delighted to welcome Yemi to the Hims & Hers family,” said Hims & Hers CEO Andrew Dudum. “Yemi’s superpower is taking high-growth companies with the potential to transform entire industries and helping them to seize that opportunity, scale rapidly, and build a business for the long-term.

He currently practices urology privately in New York. Dr. Paik joined Hims & Hers in July 2021 when the company acquired Apostrophe. She previously served as Apostrophe’s Medical Director. Dr. Paik completed her medical education at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine. She has been a board-certified dermatologist since 2012.
