Maybe we know each other. Maybe we’re friends. Or maybe you’re just passing through. Either way, I’m glad you’re here.

Hi, I’m a cat mom, a low-key explorer, and a lifelong nerd with a computer science background. I work at Amazon Web Services in Seattle, Washington. 

One thing about me is that I try to live with clarity and intention as I find my way through a world full of noise, opinions, and distractions. I’m not here to perform or impress—I’m just here doing my thing.

When I’m not working, I’m exploring new places, spending time with my loved ones, and watching cat videos (I probably watch more than I should).

Paraaki is my visual diary: a creative space where I collect moments I’m grateful for and memories I share with my love, JJ. I want to capture the life we’re building together so we can look back on it someday.

This is mostly just for fun and for me, but I hope it brings you a little joy or inspiration along the way.

Thanks for being here.
