We're Only as Good as Our Team
And Our Team is the Best in the Outdoor Industry
Yoon Kim

I project-manage all client projects to make sure they hit timeline and budget, while maintaining the highest standards of quality.

In 2005 to 2008, Yoon started his career in finance at JP Morgan Chase. He learned three things during this time. First, that he loved finance. Second, that ecommerce is very similar to finance. Third, he learned he wanted nothing to do with the finance industry, but still wanted to apply his financial skills to help companies that align with his personal values.
In 2011, Yoon started Outdoor Ecom with a vision to help top outdoor brands reach their ecommerce potential. In 2015, he started Outdoor Media Summit, the conference for media and marketers in outdoor, and in 2016, he started Gearography, a gear blog for adventure travelers.

Blaise Gozé

Elevates brand presence by managing and creating dynamic videos and graphics.

I specialize in bridging the gap between creative vision and technical precision. From 3D generalism and graphic design to motion graphics and videography, I leverage the Adobe Creative Cloud and Blender to craft high-end visuals that elevate brands and stories. Let’s collaborate to bring your next project to life.
Dustin Williams
Web Developer

I specialize in driving sustainable business growth through design, data-driven strategies, and digital marketing. I focus on measurable outcomes such as customer acquisition, retention, and revenue generation by using a mix of services like lead generation, content marketing, and paid advertising.
Matthew Plank
Amazon Specialist
I manage the Amazon program and have spent countless hours herding the cats and fixing your listing issues.
Read More
Beyond the analytics and ad dashboards, Matthew is a lifelong adventurer. He sails, dives, climbs, mountain bikes, paddleboards, and runs whitewater whenever he can—living out the very spirit of the brands he works with. He also serves as the Co-Host of the Keyword Adventure Podcast, inspiring families to step outside, build confidence through challenge, and cultivate a love for wild places and meaningful experiences.
Benji Goossen
Creative Specialist
I work hard to create beautiful solutions whether through design, code, or photography (and if it’s something new I’ll learn how to do it).
Read More
I grew up in Central Asia (great for snowboarding!) Even though it was a lovely area with delightfully hospitable people, it had one flaw, it was host to terrible graphic design. But as I grew up, the design around me began to flourish which spurred me on to learn more and more. As a fast learner, I sprinted through my BS in Graphic Design and entered into the outdoor space working on web design, email, and video with clients like ENO hammocks, Korkers Footwear, and many more.
Joy Kim
Payroll Administrator
I make sure everyone on our team gets paid. If you get an invoice, it’s from me =D
Read More
I’ve lived in five different countries and speak three languages fluently. I started my career as a teacher but quickly learned I have a passion for nursing and went back to school. Today I’m an RA at Mercy Hospital in Rogers Arkansas and in my free time, run the books for OE and manage real estate investments in Northwest Arkansas.
Erica Zazo
Event Director
I direct our event side Outdoor Media Summit, everything from working with DMOs, planning events for brands, and even telling you where the nearest bathroom is.
Read More
I am a Chicago-based freelancer covering adventure travel, urban nature, and the best outdoor gear. An advocate for city-based outdoor adventure, I love exploring lesser-known trails, parks, and towns – and inspiring others to do the same through my storytelling. LGBTQ+ narratives, access and accessibility, and rewriting what it looks like to get outside are also common themes in my writing.
