Hi! I’m Deidre June; a forward-thinking and innovative consumer products professional who’s passionate about emerging platforms and technology.

My focus is on designing purpose-driven, global, and sustainable products and experiences that are truly 21st century-worthy.

With over a decade of experience in the licensed consumer products industry, on both licensee and licensor sides, I've had the ultimate privilege of working with some of the biggest names in toys, fashion, and more. What sets me apart is my international perspective and my willingness to challenge conventional practices. I'm always searching for new and exciting ways to push the boundaries and create impactful brand solutions that truly stand out.

Currently, I’m the Director of Licensing for LA-based apparel manufacturer Cactus and Pearl LLC. When I'm not working, I'm dedicated to giving back by serving as a mentor for The Ohio State University's Fashion and Retail Studies program, as a West Coast Ambassador for Licensing International organization, and volunteer caretaker for Kitten Rescue. Community involvement and health is also important to me as a member of the Los Angeles Athletic Club and Soporano for the club’s Athenas Womens Chorus. I also love adventuring into the Metaverse to collect digital fashion wearables and NFT cryptoart.
