Hi there. I’m a 30-year-old from Southern California. My major is Health Science (Healthy Lifestyles and Fitness), aspiring to bridge the gap between food and culture. I am a Stock Manager (ASM) for AllSaints. Growing up as the eldest and a first-generation student, I learned at a young age how to cook, nurture, and tend to my family and perhaps part of my passion now is learning new ways to care for others. Mine just so happens to be with the language of nourishment.

I have a cat named Oreo, and two dogs, Seven and Rusty. Within the home atmosphere, my brother Joey and best friend Precious, along with my girlfriend Julie have co-created a space of community, wellness, and self-development.

My hobbies include playing video games, cooking, working out at the gym and taking long walks through the grocery store. I spend a lot of time reading into things, learning about the environment outside of what I know; this comes in the format of articles and books. Other times, I’ll listen to Podcasts to hear different perspectives about a variety of topics: Crypto, Nutrition, Self-Development, Mental Health, Business, and Brene Brown.
