Waaaaay back in college (2004), I met two of the sickest people to ever put on at the UCSD Media program, Jonathon Villegas & Kim Woo. If you ask me, it was a pretty instantaneous connection between the three of us; whether it be because we all skated to class, were stoked on the same hip-hop/action sports culture, or maybe even 'cause we were the only ones who actually spoke in any of our classes. Whichever it was, after watching some of their work in the audio/video realm, I knew that we could pump out some good stuff.
Kim Woo went on to intern over at Osiris shoes, a skate company based out of San Diego, and started to infiltrate the world of marketing for skate, wake, snow, and surf. Even though we all know she started off on the phones, Woozy quickly broke down some doors and took over the Osirs Girls' Team Mgr. position. Kim is the type of person that makes connections with people, whether it be in business or friendship, and keeps them for good. Somehow, she has the ability to fuse people, work, play, and passion into a business-minded machine that will undoubtedly be taking the world by storm shortly. Her blog, 'The Woozy Life', is a peak into her vision and I urge anyone who has a love for a board of anykind to take a look. You won't be dissappointed.
