Aloha!
I’m a cultural anthropologist, futurist and creative person.
For 20+ years I’ve been studying the big ideas and trends that shape our changing tastes, opinions and values--and then turned those insights into amazing products, strategies and experiences.
I'm kind of like a Jane Goodall for humans who can see the future and make cool stuff.
I’ve been lucky enough to work with some of the best brands around like Netflix, HBO, Disney, Nike, Mercedes Benz, Virgin and Calvin Klein.
In addition to being an entrepreneur, I’m also a curious creator so I’ve taken mushroom cultivation class with Paul Stamets, learned natural beekeeping, became an herbalist, designed a makerspace and co-hosted a podcast on Bruce Lee.
I’m married to Ben, my college sweetheart, and we have 2 awesome daughters, Maggie and Quinn. I was born in Seoul Korea, lived most of my life in Los Angeles and recently made my longtime dream come true by moving to Hawaii.
