PR & Marketing Professional/ Event Coordinator/ Photographer/ Blogger

Welcome!

I am a young professional and a born storyteller with a passion for communication and brand awareness, a journey that began with a typewriter at the age of ten, and a love for cameras.

I proudly graduated in June 2021 from the University of Oregon with a B.S. in Communication & Journalism. Since then, I’ve excelled in diverse roles—from Assistant Account Executive at WE Communications (where I partnered with Microsoft) to Special Events Production Assistant at West Coast Bach and Event Coordinator at Steve LeVine Entertainment & PR. Today, I contribute my skills as the Content/Event Coordinator on the marketing team at Capital Fund I.

Outside of work and my hobbies, you can find me enjoying a spicy drink, listening to a juicy podcast, or chismeando con mis amigos y familia. What truly brings me joy is creative writing, deep conversations, and spending quality time with my family.

Growing up along the Oregon and California coasts, the West Coast’s raw beauty has shaped who I am and my values. It’s sparked my passion for modern storytelling and creative media—an influence guiding my work each day.

As I turn challenges into opportunities for growth, I am using my experiences to inspire others, ignite creativity, and deliver seamless results on every project.

Interests

  • Exploring through Travel: I have an insatiable wanderlust, with a special love for Mexico and Europe, where I cherish family connections and seek new adventures.

  • Crafting Stories: Documentary photography and blogging are my creative outlets, and event planning is where my hospitality and customer service shine.

  • Industry Expertise: With a strong background in hospitality, events, and communications, I bring a unique perspective to clients.

My Story.

Dream it.

Crafting compelling stories from personal experiences is something I've always loved—growing up reading the Magic Tree House series and choreographing skits with my siblings, I've always cherished the power of storytelling.

 

Build it.

Pursuing a path at the University of Oregon's Journalism School, I sought to learn effective reporting, writing, and communication. With a major in Public Relations and a minor in Sociology, I've found the perfect blend of expressing this passion, enabling me to grow as a writer and make further connections.

As a first-generation student, graduating was an extraordinary moment in my family, through working hard each day and continuing to learn personally and professionally.

Grow it.

I have learned the importance of a growth mindset and prevailing through life’s difficulties. To me, this means pursuing the best version of myself:

determined, inspired, and happy

As I collect new skills and discover new places and ideas, my years of experience grow. I am grateful to be where I am, but I await new adventures!
