Karina Wang

She favors sharp black suits with subtle sapphire accents, keeps her hair in a perfectly messy undercut bob, and wears rings that look like they belong to someone who could either negotiate a merger or cast a spell. She’s known for her blisteringly smart one-liners, her refusal to tolerate corporate nonsense, and the way she’ll casually mention her girlfriend in interviews like it’s the most normal thing in the world (because it should be). Karina mentors young queer entrepreneurs, funds scholarships, and still somehow finds time to show up courtside at her girlfriend’s basketball games. In the press she’s called “the future of leadership,” but her friends just call her “Kari,” the woman who orders iced coffee year-round and can solve a crisis call while also picking the perfect playlist. She's not just redefining what power looks like—she's making it look effortless.
