A huge thank you to New York Road Runners (NYRR) for the feature during Mental Health Awareness Month. 💚

Running has been a huge part of my grieving journey following the m*rd*r of my dad and uncle, and I hope that my story can help anyone else undergoing hardships: bit.ly/3Qs8AYC

I reached my running, reading and educational goals in 2023. They barely matter. At the end of the year, I’m so proud of my resilience.

Thank you so much for listening to my story, thinking of me and sharing my words throughout the entire year. To a better 2024. 🤍

I feel guilty even posting this, but we can't even process what's to come, coupled with my mom's primary income being severed. I have been saving money even before this tragedy to support my parents, so I really appreciate the generosity. I am generally very succinct in what I post, but I cannot contextualize the generosity we have already experienced.

This page is my work page, so I don't check it much, but I will post it on my personal page when I am ready/if I see fit.

✨ First-gen college + grad ✨

Since I made the decision to go back to school at Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School, I moved back from San Francisco, got promoted, moved to Brooklyn, took a new job, dealt with a myriad of personal and health issues and got promoted again. I took on freelance, volunteer and TA gigs while juggling work and school.

More importantly, in the past year, I’ve worked to prioritize my mental and physical health, a routine that includes therapy, exercise and rest.

I get nervous talking about my accomplishments in person or self-reflecting on them. But, at the end of the 2.5+ years, I gotta say: I’m proud of myself. 👩🏻‍🎓

I'm an with three specializations: entrepreneurial marketing, public & private sector leadership, and digital marketing.

Here are the 50+ books I finished in 2022. 📚 What was your favorite book of the year?

If you flip through, you’ll see nine of the books I read are by Asian, Asian American and authors.

I have flipped back and forth on putting out the list of books that I read. And that’s oftentimes because I feel as if I read a lot of low-brow stuff. You know how some people relax by flipping on Bravo and watching people at their worst? Well, sometimes to unwind, I read junk.

But, after contemplating this, I have arrived at a stance in which I truly believe: reading anything is better and more stimulating than not reading at all.

It is also a hobby of which I’m very proud.

Reading has helped me learn, forced me to cry, challenged me and made me laugh out loud in 2022. Can’t wait for what’s next in 2023.

If you are in a position of leadership, you must stop tweeting, talking or humble-bragging about how overworked you are.

Reading is one of my favorite hobbies, but one that I’ve been robbed of after reading all day for work and all night for school.

That said, I fell a bit short of my goal to read 50 books this year (which is OK!) I also read a lot of fluff this year, easy page-turners to entertain me in the same way that others turn to reality TV.

Another accomplishment: Two books I worked to promote were published this year! Very cool to see my name in print.

I am looking forward to diving into more books in 2022. Swipe for my Top 5 or hit the link in my bio/story for the full list.

✨ Life Update ✨ Amid some uncertain times, I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be starting as Vice President, Social at The Game Day in 2022.

Even when I was a Sr. Director at MASN at 25, I never thought I'd see my name tied to a VP title in my 20s.

I'm so grateful for the opportunities I was given during my 2+ years at The Athletic. I grew so much as a person and as a leader. I’ll miss my team tremendously. They're building something amazing, and I can't wait to follow along as a fan.

Let's get to work.

Proud of this one with The Athletic. It was really important to me that we use a Japanese artist.

Context from artist Kentaro Yoshida: The Lotus flower is Shohei Ohtani's birthday month flower in Japan, and the text containers represent the Japanese art movement Ukiyo-e.
