Tarlon Khoubyari
SF Events and Community Lead @ Rho
About
Hi, I’m Tarlon Khoubyari — a builder at heart with a deep passion for startups, founders, and the communities that surround them. Currently, I lead SF Events & Community at Rho, where I’m focused on creating meaningful experiences that bring people together and help drive real connections. Whether it’s hosting large-scale hackathons or curating intimate dinners, I believe the moments we create — and the conversations they spark — have the power to shape ecosystems. Before Rho, I wore many hats across the startup world, including founder. That firsthand experience fuels how I approach my work today — always thinking like a builder, always prioritizing authenticity, and always aiming to create spaces where founders, VCs, and operators can show up as themselves. At the core of everything I do is community — not just as a buzzword, but as a real, intentional practice. I love connecting the dots between people and ideas, and I’m constantly energized by the magic that happens when the right people meet at the right time. Let’s connect if you’re a founder, VC, or operator who values community just as much — I’m always down to collaborate, brainstorm, or simply grab a coffee.
