Kara Goldin


Kara Goldin is founder and CEO of San Francisco based Hint Water, the fastest rowing flavored water in the United States. Kara started Hint when she couldn’t find healthy flavored water that tasted great without questionable additives like sweeteners and preservatives. Hint recently made its foray into beauty with a new naturally scented sunscreen spray with no oxybenzone or parabens. Kara was formerly the Vice President of Shopping and E-commerce Partnerships at AOL, where she grew AOL’s shopping business from startup to more than $1 billion in revenue in less than 7 years. In 2015, Kara was selected as winner of the prestigious Marketers That Matter award for Brand Building Small Company. Kara was also selected among only 10 other women as Fortune’s 2011 “Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs,” and in 2012 as one of Ernst and Young’s “Entrepreneurial Winning Women.” Kara is also an active speaker and writer.
