Neenz : Hawaii

Bred, born, and raised in Hawaii; L.P. “Neenz” Faleafine is founder of media marketing company Pono Media.

Nearly three years ago, a casual conversation on Twitter led to her sitting in the audience at a conference listening to a speech by Founding Partner of Garage Technology Ventures, co-Founder of Nononina, author, and speaker Guy Kawasaki. A week later, Neenz was employed by Nononina as a Truemorist for citizen journalism site, Truemors and today is the Chief Evangelist for leading news aggregation site, Alltop. As part of the Nononina team, Neenz reports to and works directly with Kawasaki.

Her experience as a Property Manager combined with her knowledge of social media, networking, marketing, and innovation gained from her years at Nononina inspired her to launch her media marketing company, Pono Media.

As the Founder of Pono Media, Neenz aims to empower business owners and entrepreneurs to build communities and form partnerships using social media marketing.

Neenz is also the curator of TEDxHonolulu.
