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. 

I try to live with intention in a world full of noise and distraction.

When I’m not working, I explore new places, spend time with my loved ones, and watch too many cat videos—more than I should.

Paraaki is my visual diary: a creative space where I collect moments I’m grateful for, and the 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.
