Marina was born in Canada, years after her parents immigrated during the Vietnam War. She studied commerce with a focus on marketing, and had educational and internship stints in South Korea and Hong Kong. She was shortlisted as a Finalist in the Globe & Mail Cannes Young Marketers Competition. With 13+ years of brand management experience at global FMCG companies including Unilever, Bacardi, LG Electronics and Spin Master, Marina set off to launch her own sustainable brand with EQUO. Her inspiration is driven by trying to build a brighter, greener future for her nephew, working to support local economic growth and job creation from her parent’s hometown, and the desire to raise Vietnam's profile as a global leader in sustainability and innovation. Marina has appeared in global media to share her ambition for a world free of single-use plastic, appearing in Forbes, Shark Tank Vietnam, Front Office by PlayersTV, being the first Vietnamese startup admitted in to Techstars, and was recently named to Vegpreneur's list of 22 Founders to Watch in 2022 & the grand winner of She Disrupts Vietnam.
