Kiersten Hathcock, Chief Marketing Officer for Moonshot, is no stranger to entrepreneurship. In 2003, Kiersten left a marketing career with A&E and The History Channel to spend more time with her kids and built an internationally-known furniture company out of her Los Angeles garage. After four years of crafting and selling over 300 kids’ furniture items, Kiersten braved ABC’s Shark Tank and won an investment deal. Kiersten's designs have been featured in TV shows, People Magazine, New York Times, LA Times, and international design books. Her award-winning furniture line was sought after by celebrities, interior designers, and retailers around the globe for 17 years.
Today, Kiersten leads marketing for Moonshot, co-produces our annual statewide Pitch Tour Competition, and mentors entrepreneurs across Arizona and beyond. She is also a professional speaker, published author (Post Hill Press/Simon & Schuster), and co-founder of New York-based nonprofit, The National Institute for Law and Justice.
