Committed to health across the nation, Kara teamed up with Michelle Obama to launch the “Drink Up” initiative, a movement that encourages everyone to drink more water more often.

Business speaker for hire Kara moved to San Francisco to work for a start-up called 2Market, a branch of Apple pursuing a computer-based shopping idea that Steve Jobs developed. She was the National Sales Manager for two years until the company was bought out by AOL. Goldin quickly began working in e-commerce for AOL as the Vice President of Shopping and E-Commerce Partnerships. She successfully grew AOL’s e-commerce and shopping business to approximately a billion dollars in revenue.

After having three kids, Kara took a step back from her 9-5 to spend her time creating and living a healthy lifestyle. When she noticed that she had a hard time losing her baby weight, she channeled her creative energy to launch Hint in 2005 in San Francisco, advertising the drink as a healthy alternative to sugary artificially sweetened beverages that she had been consuming. Notably, Hint Water is famous for flavored exclusively with natural fruit. In the 14 years since the creation, Hint Water has become an asset of the break rooms of companies including Google, Facebook, and Linkedin. And so, Hint Fizz carbonated beverage was launched in 2011 and in 2017, Hint began to market sunscreen.

After her creation of Hint, Goldin wanted to share her experiences as an entrepreneur with the world. With this in mind, she created The Kara Network as a place for fellow entrepreneurs to reach out and tell their stories in addition to providing some helpful insight to those who are interested in following in a similar entrepreneurial path.
