Author bio

Olisana Mariner is a Samoan Artist, Social Entrepreneur and Mental Health Advocate. Her mission is to create solutions that amplify marginalised voices and make the democratisation of information more effective. As a person living with EUPD and a caretaker to loved ones with ASD, ADD/ADHD, BP and CPTSD - Olisana aspires to create equitable and inclusive environments for neurodiverse individuals in Pacific communities.

Olisana has a BCom in Marketing & International Business from the Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. Using her skills in communication, international relations, and strategic thinking, she brings energy and vision to manage projects, lead teams and raise funds to meet community needs. Olisana creates customer-centric and/or community-led solutions by grounding her work in Samoan values of resilience, adaptability and inclusion. A Pacific Islander, born and raised on a small island, she brings a strong sense of purpose and belonging to teams, touching on human empathy and social responsibility.

In 2019, Olisana started her first business, THE HUB Pacific, a hybrid events management company. Taking her lessons learned from incubation programs and international pitch festivals, she co-founded social enterprise Onelook Studio with her sister in 2021.

Olisana serves as a minor shareholder of OSM Investments Limited, is a Founding Curator of the Global Shapers Apia Hub by the World Economic Forum, and a Apia Hub Coordinator for the Pacific Connect program, run by ICDP and funded by the Government of Australia.

When she's not in a cafe sipping espressos, you can find her playing tabletop games with friends, potting plants, puzzling and thrifting.
