Who I am

Born and raised in Honolulu on the island of Oahu, I’ve always had the curiosity to experience what is beyond the miles of ocean that separate us from the rest of the world. I moved to San Francisco in 2003 to attend the Academy of Art University on my own, away from the comfort of long time friends and family. It was eye opening and it pushed me to become independent not only in living alone, but to see the world in a different light. My view from that experience translated into my work as a graphic designer, and later as my passion extended to Marketing.

I’m an introvert by day and extrovert by night. I’m thoughtful when I speak and I value the power of relationships. I still believe in the golden rule, which we should treat others the way we want to be treated. And that being genuinely nice trumps being rude to gain real respect.

My biggest passion is being around my children and feeling grateful for my loving family. I also have a Bichon/Poodle that makes friends with everyone and likes to sing.
