About Steph Whiting

I\'m a Capricorn married to a Capricorn who labels everything in our garage — and yes, that\'s absolutely a love language. I\'ve spent my career at the intersection of people, community, and growth. Right now, I\'m doing some of the most meaningful work of my life as Head of Community at Hello Haven AI — a company building something genuinely new: an emotionally intelligent personal AI that knows you, remembers what matters to you, and grows with you over time.What drew me in? The values. Haven is built on a people-first foundation — one that takes privacy seriously and believes real connection matters, even in tech. That\'s cool. And I\'m here for it.I\'m obsessed with learning, connecting people, building businesses, and staying on the front edge of emerging technology — especially AI that actually serves humans, not the other way around. I co-lead Women Entrepreneurs of Park City, coach NICA high school mountain biking, and genuinely believe that transferring passion is the best way to build anything worth building.
