CEO
David graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with an undergraduate degree and MBA from the Jeffrey S. Raikes School in Computer Science and Management. As a graduate assistant working with the Nebraska football team, he saw firsthand how many DVDs and paper playbooks were created and distributed on a weekly basis, wasting valuable time and resources. David worked with two graduates – John Wirtz and Brian Kaiser – to get those film study tools online.
CTO
A native of Overland Park, Kansas, Brian graduated from the University of Nebraska’s Raikes School of Computer Science and Management in 2006. That same year, he teamed up with David Graff and John Wirtz to create the first version of Hudl for its first client, the Nebraska Cornhuskers. As Chief Technology Officer, Brian has overseen Hudl’s infrastructure since Day 1 – a fitting role for someone who ran his own computer repair shop in high school.
CPO
Originally from Blue Springs, Missouri, John earned his bachelor’s and master’s at the University of Nebraska, spending his undergrad in the Raikes Computer Science program with Brian Kaiser as a roommate and David Graff across the hall. John started as a developer in Hudl’s early stages before taking over the sales team for a short time. Now he serves as Chief Product Officer, making sure the software’s expansive list of features always stays ahead of the curve.
If it’s worth doing, it’s worth being the best. We stay focused on our long-term goals, take big swings and aren’t afraid to fail. We believe nothing is given. We have to constantly earn the right to win and we do it with humility and integrity.
We take care of each other. We’re people first, co-workers second. We value outcomes over hours—burnout isn’t a badge of honor. We default to trust and always assume positive intent. Together we build an experience that’s flexible, creates work-life harmony, and allows everyone to thrive while having fun along the way.
We get out of our comfort zone and pitch in whenever it’s needed. We build empathy for customers and each other by rolling up our sleeves and jumping in to help—because there’s no better way to build understanding than firsthand experience.
We're humble and curious. We seek out diverse perspectives and new approaches. We don’t just want to know, we want to know why. We value learn-it-alls over know-it-alls. We listen to truly understand, not just to reply.
Feedback can be hard, but it’s how we grow. We seek out #realtalk and give it freely, but always from a place of care. We work hard to build a culture of trust so candor can be the norm. We’re clear, constructive and don’t leave things unsaid.
