Hey there! I'm a seasoned Senior Graphic Designer with over 15 years of experience crafting captivating visuals and leading creative teams. When I'm not in design mode, you'll find me soaking up quality time with my amazing family – they're my everything. With my hubby of 28 years by my side and two spirited kiddos aged 11 and 8, our life is a whirlwind of soccer matches, bike rides, and epic ice cream adventures.

​

But here's where the story gets really interesting – I'm a cultural blend like no other. Born in El Reno, Oklahoma, raised in the vibrant tapestry of Cali, Colombia, and proudly carrying Japanese heritage, I'm fluent in Spanish and obsessed with fusion flavors. My great-grandparents' journey from Fukuoka, Japan, to Colombia in the 1930s sprinkled magic into my upbringing, from arepas with soy sauce to obachan's homemade delicacies.

​

Art and design? They're in my DNA. Graduating with honors from Universidad Autonoma de Occidente in Cali, Colombia, I've always been a top-tier creative. Over almost 11 years at Accell Group (North America), I honed my skills as Creative Art/Marketing Director, soaking up knowledge and leading with flair. Now, at American Hakko Products, Inc., I'm spearheading a rebranding strategy to take our image to the next level, making sure our vibe is on point across every marketing channel.

​

What fuels me? The rush of transforming brands and blowing minds with killer designs. I'm a powerhouse of creativity, confidence, and innovation. From idea to execution, I'm all about smashing goals and leaving jaws on the floor – every single time.
