Renee Kim

With a career spanning multiple industries and over three decades of experience in finance, business development, marketing, and strategic growth, I have built a reputation as a dynamic and results-driven leader. My expertise extends across finance, corporate event management, marketing, and business strategy, allowing me to provide a comprehensive approach to building and scaling businesses.
I began my professional journey as a financial advisor, spending 12 years advising clients on investment strategies, market analysis, and financial planning. This foundation gave me deep insights into business operations, financial forecasting, and strategic decision-making—skills that later became instrumental in my entrepreneurial ventures.
I then founded and successfully ran a destination management company for 15 years, working with major global brands like Mercedes, Wells Fargo, Boeing, and Fortune 500 companies. Under my leadership, the company grew into a recognized industry leader before being acquired by a national brand. During this time, I honed my expertise in corporate event strategy, business negotiations, brand positioning, and operational scalability.
Following the sale of my company, I launched a marketing agency, where I spent four years helping businesses develop data-driven marketing strategies, optimize brand positioning, and build high-impact campaigns. My work has spanned hospitality, medical, legal, banking, nonprofit, e-commerce, and numerous other industries, giving me a deep understanding of how different business models operate and scale.
Today, I provide Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) services, bringing executive-level marketing and business strategy expertise to companies looking to grow, scale, and navigate complex business challenges. My work includes guiding companies through brand transformation, revenue-focused marketing strategies, business structuring, and operational efficiency. I have also played a pivotal role in helping nonprofits grow from the ground up to thriving, viral organizations, leveraging my ability to identify opportunities, craft compelling messaging, and drive large-scale engagement.
As an entrepreneur at heart, I excel in building, scaling, and restructuring businesses—navigating challenges, optimizing processes, and executing strategies that lead to measurable success. My extensive cross-industry experience and deep understanding of business operations, marketing, and financial strategy allow me to bring unique, tailored solutions to every organization I work with.
