==========================================
Full Bio:
Jackie Kim is a former attorney turned startup investor (specializing in hospitality and consumer goods) turned brand founder. She was an early investor in Mavericks, a men’s skincare line based in Silicon Valley that she personally became invested in due to her passion for skincare. That passion sparked a vision for a women’s skincare brand. Cue Maelove, named as an homage to “Mae,” her husband’s grandmother, paired with “love,” for Jackie’s love for beauty.
Maelove launched in 2017 with their iconic product, The Glow Maker Antioxidant Serum. Maelove’s mission is to obsessively formulate great products and provide outstanding customer service, and the brand’s success is measured by the number of happy–and repeat–customers.
Outside of Maelove, Jackie is a Board Member of Sala Institute at NYU Langone Children's Hospital, a cause near and dear to her heart because of her own struggles with fertility.
Jackie received her undergraduate degree from Hamilton College and her JD from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.
Originally a native of Calabasas, CA, Jackie now lives in Las Vegas, NV with her husband (and Maelove’s COO), Brad Yim, and their adorable daughter Beverly.
