April Masini is most recognized for accomplishments as: an entertainment industry executive; “media maven”; columnist and author. She has always, and remains, most motivated by large scale, cause-driven, projects.
The statewide contest, “Share Aloha With The World”, for which I was a judge, is one example, and a testament to Masini's talent for creating unique opportunities to make an impact. This inventive and inclusive contest is noteworthy for many reasons. Among them: It turned The Miss Universe Pageant into a learning opportunity, by engaging and challenging children K-12 to express their creativity in a poem, painting or drawing. To date, visitors from around the world continue to be greeted by the contests 2876 submissions. Each is a piece of art, a child’s unique expression of how to “Share Aloha with the World”.
Masini’s contest submissions still line the walls of Hawaii airports. As co-chair of The 1998 Miss Universe Pageant, Masini also created and produced nine back-to-back, uniquely themed, world-class events including the “Welcome Home Brook Lee Parade of Nations”, the largest weekday parade in Hawaii’s history.
Masini created and spearheaded the federal legislation “The Military Check-Off Box for Vets”. It would create an optional check-off box on all federal tax returns for donations to Vets. Roper Public Affairs & Media was engaged by Masini to determine public support. Roper stated, after polling, that there was more support for the military check-off box project than for anything previously polled.
Masini is credited with: relocating multiple TV and film productions to Hawaii; propelling Hawaii’s film tourism; co-drafting two vital pieces of Hawaii’s film industry legislation; and lobbying and securing their passage. Beyond initiating and overseeing the relocation of Baywatch from California to Hawaii, Masini “pioneered the first-of-its-kind cross-promotion between a Hollywood studio (Universal) and the location in which its film (Blue Crush) was shot”. Hawaii’s then-Governor Cayetano, credited Masini with “almost single-handedly reviving the state’s television and film industry” and proclaimed June 4th as “Masini Day“
Masini has authored four books, answered 27,500+ questions on her quarter of a million members advice forum, and become one of America’s foremost relationship advice and etiquette experts.
P&G Old Spice and TD Bank hired Masini for national campaigns: “Voice of Experience Campaign the former; the “Love and Money Campaign”, the later.
