corporate honoree
Peter Kim is a product of his Southern California upbringing. At 44, he has a youthful, almost boyish energy, a collection of tattoos, and a penchant for surfing. It is that exuberant and tenacious spirit that could be credited for his many successes, most notably as founder and CEO of premium denim brand Hudson Jeans. Over the past decade, Kim has become a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist, using his resources to raise awareness and funding for nonprofits and various programs in the Los Angeles area. Of course, in true Peter Kim fashion, a dose of adventure must be involved at all times. From skydiving at 18 thousand feet to enduring 26-mile marathons in the name of numerous causes, he hopes to drive home a louder central message: we can all do our part to progress the world around us, and we can make an adventure of doing it.
