Seamus came to dōTERRA with deep expertise (with an Associates in Counseling, Bachelor degree in both Pacific Island Studies another in Traditional Performing Arts, and finally a Master’s of Philosophy in Māori) and a wealth of experience driving cultural change at four other organizations, and most recently as Director of Talent Management for the world renowned Polynesian Cultural Center.

Since joining dōTERRA in 2021, Seamus has been pivotal in shaping and reinforcing company culture, with a particular focus on canonizing and elevating dōTERRA’s Core Values. Over the years, the demand for his leadership has increased materially particularly among Wellness Advocate leaders and in international markets. This new role has empowered Seamus to magnify his impact in our quest to make dōTERRA a “forever company".

𝗕𝗬𝗨–𝗛𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗶𝗶 𝗔𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗻𝗶 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗣𝗖𝗖 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸

During APCC week, we had the wonderful opportunity to gather with BYU–Hawaii alumni for a special luncheon filled with friendship, memories, and inspiration.

As alumni shared stories from their student days in Laie, it was evident how deeply their experiences at BYU–Hawaii have shaped their lives. From lifelong friendships and spiritual growth to professional opportunities and leadership development, each story reflected the lasting impact of the university’s mission.

It was especially meaningful to hear how BYU–Hawaii continues to bless generations of alumni as they serve in their families, communities, careers, and the Church throughout Oceania, Asia, and beyond.

Mahalo to all who joined us and shared their journeys. Your experiences are a testament to the enduring influence of a BYU–Hawaii education and the strength of our global alumni ʻohana.
