Dr. Hoby Wedler is a chemist, entrepreneur, and sensory storyteller who redefines how we experience the world. With a Ph.D. in chemistry and a lifelong ability to navigate the world without sight, he blends scientific insight with magnetic storytelling to help people and brands deepen perception, elevate memory, and forge lasting emotional connections.

Through immersive experiences like Tasting In The DarkTM, sensory-rich consulting, and multisensory brand partnerships, Dr. Hoby brings flavor, sound, and texture into sharp focus. His unique approach has earned recognition from President Barack Obama (Champion of Change), Forbes (30 Under 30 in Food & Drink), and Wine Enthusiast (40 Under 40: Tastemakers).

Whether guiding global audiences, developing emotionally resonant products, or helping hospitality teams engage guests on a deeper level, Dr. Hoby translates the complex science of perception into rich, unforgettable experiences. His work doesn’t just tell stories; it helps brands and individuals live them.
