Dustin Aaron Moskovitz is an American billionaire entrepreneur, a co-founder of Facebook (Meta Platforms), and the founder of the software company Asana (NYSE: ASAN). Born in Gainesville, Florida, in 1984, he grew up in Ocala, Florida, and attended Harvard University, majoring in economics.

Moskovitz's career began in his Harvard dorm room in February 2004, where he co-founded thefacebook.com with roommates Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, and Chris Hughes. After two years, he dropped out of Harvard to move to Palo Alto and work full-time on the burgeoning social network. He served as the company's first Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and later Vice President of Engineering, overseeing the platform's early infrastructure and growth.

Dustin Moskovitz left Facebook in 2008 (retaining a substantial equity stake) to co-found Asana with Justin Rosenstein, an engineer at Facebook. His strategic vision for Asana was to create a software platform dedicated to task management and enhancing workplace productivity—solving the immense problem of organizational inefficiency. Asana successfully went public in September 2020 via a direct listing, securing his multi-billion dollar fortune.

Moskovitz's greatest post-Facebook legacy is his profound commitment to Effective Altruism (EA). He and his wife, Cari Tuna, co-founded Good Ventures in 2011 and are signatories of The Giving Pledge, committing to donate the vast majority of their fortune. His personal wealth, estimated in the billions, is tied to his enduring stake in Meta Platforms (Facebook) and his large stake in Asana. In March 2025, he announced his intention to retire from the CEO role and transition to a Chairman role once a replacement is found.

Dustin Moskovitz is one of the world's leading philanthropists, championing Effective Altruism (EA)—a philosophy that applies evidence and reason to find the most effective ways to do good. His structural social impact is tied to the creation of Facebook and Asana, which revolutionized social media and workplace productivity, respectively.

His immense giving is channeled through Good Ventures, which supports causes ranging from global health to AI safety, leveraging billions of dollars for structural problem-solving globally.

Dustin Moskovitz maintains the simple, highly intellectual style of a tech founder and philanthropist. His attire is consistently practical and unostentatious, favoring casual wear. His aesthetic is anti-glamour, focused on the intellectual rigor of Effective Altruism and software design.

His luxury is the profound security and autonomy derived from his multi-billion dollar fortune. His life is dedicated to leveraging technology and immense capital for structural global change and philanthropic efficiency.
