Sean Krejci

Born and raised in Pahoa, Hawaii, as the eldest of 10 siblings and the son of two blind parents, Sean Krejci began his entrepreneurial journey at just eight years old, transforming a modest newspaper route into a 600-delivery operation through a custom distribution system he created. By the age of 13, he launched his first landscaping business, which he sold five years later.

At 16, he earned his pilot’s license for both single-engine and glider aircraft—a passion that led him to join the U.S. Air Force. During his military service, Sean trained in the Precision Measurement Equipment Laboratory (PMEL), a highly technical program where he calibrated mission-critical instruments and advanced systems with tolerances as precise as one millionth. His PMEL expertise ensured the safety and precision of equipment used across Air Force maintenance operations. This rigorous scientific training laid the groundwork for his strength in systems thinking, process development, and operational leadership.

After receiving multiple commendations in the Air Force, Sean transitioned to the creative industries, working on visual effects for blockbuster films with Kodak in Hollywood. His entrepreneurial drive led him to found a global extreme sports apparel brand in San Diego, which sponsored over 30 professional athletes and earned media exposure on MTV, NBC, and VH1.

Today, as Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of Kind Traveler, Sean oversees partner success, impact data systems, and product development. He brings a rare combination of technical precision, creative innovation, and logistical mastery to his leadership. Sean also holds an advanced certificate in Design Communication Arts from UCLA Extension. He is a seasoned product designer, photographer, and drone pilot, committed to using his skills to drive positive change in travel, animal welfare, and environmental stewardship.
