about me
-
My identity: I am a Southeast Asian American woman, introvert, former people-pleaser & shy girl, first-born daughter, who was raised in a low-income, single parent household, the first in my family to attend college, lived in diverse areas like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and Seattle, someone who is comfortable with discomfort, and transitioned from working as a dental assistant to corporate communications.
Profession: I am a communications strategist at one of the largest banks in the world.
With over 10 years of professional experience in strategic communications, I’ve seen how the way we communicate can shape our relationships, careers, leadership, confidence, and opportunities.
I work with career changers, recent graduates, leaders, founders, introverts, former professional athletes, and people navigating major life transitions to help find their voice, articulate their value, navigate difficult conversations, build authentic influence, and communicate who they are becoming.
My approach combines strategic communication, emotional intelligence, storytelling, and practical tools with one simple belief:
You don’t need to become someone else to communicate effectively. You need to understand yourself, how you communicate, why it matters, and how to use your voice with intention.
-
I recognize the need for people to feel connected with themselves and to the people around them. So I have made it my personal mission to help high-performing people communicate with more clarity, confidence, influence, and intention so they can have stronger relationships with themselves, their community, and achieve meaningful success.
Unlike traditional communication training focused only on presentation skills, my approach treats communication as a foundational life skill that shapes identity, leadership, career growth, emotional intelligence, and human connection.

People come to me because they are:
Struggling to communicate with confidence or clarity
Feeling overlooked, misunderstood, or unheard
Feeling stuck or loss in their self-discovery journey
Navigating workplace change, conflict, or leadership challenges
Unsure how to position themselves professionally
Experiencing communication breakdowns with people

I’ve worked in corporate communications at companies like Microsoft, Facebook, Pizza Hut, and Citibank where I gained practical communication skills and learned communications strategies that helped move people forward.
