Welcome to Jonathan Bellack’s website. How can I help?

Hi! I am Director of the Applied Social Media Lab at Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society. The ASML’s mission is to build social media solutions that center the public interest. I am hiring!

My 30 years on the Internet has led from dot-com startups to an MBA to a SaaS turnaround acquired by Google for $3.1 billion. I spent 15 years as a senior leader of Google product management teams that built billion-dollar advertising businesses and made billions of people safer online before leaving in 2023.

In my free time, I am a happy husband and father of two sons, with a boundless enthusiasm for grilling, whiskey, and all flavors of nerdery (but especially Marvel and D&D). I serve on the boards of Montclair Local Nonprofit News and New Jersey 11th for Change, and the Trust & Safety Advisory Group of the Institute for Security and Technology. I finally got a dog!
