Scott Shigeoka

Supported by fellowships from MTV, Fulbright and the National Arts Strategies, I am launching Iceland's first-ever Saga Fest, a community festival focused on music and social change.

Former youth activist storyteller for NED, a global activism incubator, and global partnership director at One World Youth Project, an education start-up acquired in October 2012.

In 2013, I was a Nokia-sponsored storyteller at London's Social Media Week.

I write about music for The Washington Post and blog for The Huffington Post.

I am a freelance photographer and designer, and facilitate workshops for entrepreneurs and students on dialogue, diversity, youth leadership and storytelling.

I love snowboarding, music and a solid cup of coffee.

I believe in vulnerability, maximum transparency and Aloha.
