I truly value quality time spent with family and friends. When i’m not working, you can find me eating at the newest hot spot or wine tasting with my husband Dustin and/or spending time with our two chocolate labs, Penny + Coco.

I love to travel and experience new places. There is always a running list oi places to see. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I really enjoy the outdoors. I like anything near the water or in the sun. I’ve seen all the wonders of Washington and Oregon. If you haven’t seen all of them yet, let’s talk and get one on your list.

I live for live music! Let’s be honest, I love content of any kind. Music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, books. You name it, i’ll consume it. Right now i’m currently listening to a series of podcasts, i’ll watch any True Crime doc or series, and i’ve got tickets to see Leon Bridges in Berkeley in the Fall!

Style is a form of expression, and fashion design requires creativity and innovation. I love everything about fashion & styling; from the ideation phase, construction, to how pieces are put together in a variety of ways to elicit different emotions or moods.

Just like fashion, curating how a space comes to life can create a mood or certain vibe. I love the creativity of putting different tones, textures, lights together to transform the ambience. Even slight changes or adjustments to small details can completely change the mood.

Physical challenges can also be good for mental health and fitness is important to me for that very reason. I like to try new things to push myself and see what i’m capable of. I enjoy weight and hiit training, yoga, hiking, and occasionally force myself to run. I’m always open to trying something new at least once!

During my time at Nike i’ve had the honor of being part of the leadership team for the Women of Ascend, a pillar of the greater AAPI Community. Together we’ve been able to create space for AAPI and Bipoc women, creating resources for Career Growth, Representation, and Inclusivity in the workplace.

Sports and fitness bring people together, and i’ve had the pleasure of supporting this organization for the last few years by volunteering at sporting events throughout the summer. Such inspiration and happiness everywhere!
