Imagine a place where every tool, every event, every connection is crafted with you in mind. That's Oak + Pine. We're not just a network of over 100 local women entrepreneurs — we're your future collaborators, cheerleaders, and brainstorm buddies. Our get-togethers around Oahu are tailor-made for making bonds that go beyond business cards, and our Hawaii Kai coworking space? It's your new favorite spot to turn ambition into action, with the ocean as your backdrop.

Oak + Pine is made for you.

Oak + Pine sprang from the vision of Michelle Carmack, a serial entrepreneur driven to make forging human connections both easy and enjoyable. Her own leap into entrepreneurship was a whirlwind of excitement and thrill. However, once the initial buzz settled and uncertainties about finances, abilities, and self-worth began to surface, the path turned lonely and daunting. Realizing there were other women on similar journeys, Michelle wondered, "What if we united to exchange resources, uplift each other, and provide accountability and feedback?" And so, Oak + Pine came to life.

Oak + Pine is a community of over 100 local women who are designing life on their terms through entrepreneurship.
