A WALK ON THE CLIENT SIDE

As CMO/CCO, I helped build the nabi tablet, a category-defining device grounded in a simple belief: kids don’t want “kid stuff.” They want technology that feels just as smart, beautiful, and thoughtfully designed as the products adults love.

The brand quickly became a breakout consumer success, driving explosive growth and earning rare, back-to-back recognition as Inc. Magazine’s No. 1 fastest-growing private company in America in 2013 and 2014. Along the way, Forbes named Fuhu the No. 1 Most Promising Private Company, while Fast Company recognized the brand for innovation in kids’ technology. 

nabi products earned PCMag Editors’ Choice and multiple parenting awards, and the brand’s industrial design and packaging were honored with American Package Design Awards, GDUSA InHouse Design Awards, and Gold, Platinum, and Silver distinctions from Creativity International and the Pentawards.
