'What immediately struck me about Sima beyond her own personal experience as a WW member was her ability to envision alternative realities at the intersection of the social and digital worlds. 'Her vision and expertise in the digital, social and gaming spaces perfectly position her to help lead us through this historic moment as the world emerges from the pandemic and as people begin to reprioritize their physical health and wellness.' 'Sima is an innovator and a true disrupter, starting with her role at Yahoo!, proving herself a visionary as co-creator of the social media phenomenon Houseparty and continuing today through her current role at Epic Games,' said Raymond Debanne, Chair of the Board of Directors, WW.

After Yahoo! acquired Tumblr in 2013, Sistani became their first Head of Media propelling them to become the fastest-growing social network in under six months. Previously, Sistani led mobile growth operations at Yahoo! during a pivotal transition to mobile-first. At Epic, she serves as the senior executive leading social gameplay and feature development for their gaming products including Fortnite. Under her leadership, it grew to a community of over 150 million users and was acquired by Epic Games in 2019. Sistani co-founded Houseparty in 2016 as a face-to-face synchronous social network with the intention of bringing empathy to online communication.
