Kai joined the Oregon Wine Board in November 2016 to focus on consumer and tourism marketing. His experience in craft beverage, luxury products and community engagement have prepared him to best serve Oregon wine drinkers, makers and gatekeepers. He’s worked the off-premise sales floor, hosted educational tastings, navigated the three-tier distribution system, built brands from the ground up and wrestled with the perfect word choice.

Kai has lived and worked on both U.S. coasts but never felt more at home than he does here in Oregon. In his personal time he enjoys bicycles, hikes and classical music. Kai lives with his wife and their dog Frankie in NE Portland.

Obsessed with winning over heads and hearts, Ian Miller has partnered with Umpqua Bank, Oregon Symphony, NASCAR, Autism Society, Epson, Whole Foods, University of Virginia, and now Oregon Wine to create systems of meaning that move people to action. Creative lead, award-winning writer, and Oregon native, Ian lives by one rule: leave a mark.
