Chet Kittleson Biography

Chet Kittleson is the co-founder and CEO of Tin Can, a company that has reimagined the classic landline for the digital age by creating a screen-free phone designed for children. Kittleson leads Tin Can with a mission to foster genuine human connection in an era dominated by screens, transforming a garage project into a national initiative that offers families healthier, more intentional ways to stay in touch. His leadership at Tin Can reflects a philosophy that impactful technology often does less, prioritizing meaningful interaction over digital distraction.

Before launching Tin Can, Kittleson established himself as a leader in early-stage startups across real estate and consumer technology, focusing on human-centered product design. His entrepreneurial work addresses real-world problems, as demonstrated by Tin Can’s evolution from a landline adapter to a purpose-built, WiFi-enabled device that empowers children to communicate safely and independently. Kittleson's work has been featured at major events and in media, where he shares insights on parenting, technology, and the importance of offline connection, establishing his credibility as a thought leader and public speaker in the technology and parenting industries.

Kittleson has discussed the personal challenges that inspired his work, including experiences with anxiety and a conscious decision to step away from social media to model a balanced approach to technology. His advocacy for screen-free childhoods and intentional communication resonates with audiences seeking practical solutions to the complexities of modern parenting. Through Tin Can and public engagements, Kittleson champions a vision of technology that enhances, rather than replaces, authentic human relationships.
