Former Twitter COO Ali Rowghani Joins Y Combinator

Former Twitter COO Ali Rowghani has joined well-known startup incubator Y Combinator as a part-time partner, according to a blog post Thursday from YC President Sam Altman. Rowghani will help companies that are a few years out of the incubator scale and grow. Rowghani, who joined Twitter as CFO in 2010 before becoming COO, was pushed out of the company earlier this year after failing to generate significant product and user growth.
