In college, I was so lost and struggled with what to do with my life. I wanted to do “big things” but had no idea what that looked like or how to make it happen.

I tested the waters by interning at various companies, but I never felt like I “fit” with any of them. I didn’t feel like I was utilizing my strengths nor was I excited about any job I came across.

As college was coming to an end, I grew increasingly overwhelmed by the pressure from peers, family, and society to “get a good job” and “be successful.” I was so frustrated at myself for not being able to figure life out. I felt like such a failure.

It really sucked. But I knew I couldn’t settle.

After I graduated, I decided to set out to find a career and life that I’m super passionate about, rather than settling for a job I knew I wouldn’t love.

So I took a chance. I started following my heart to whatever opportunities felt right to me. Instead of trying to control every detail, I let my life flow and unfold on its own.

In the following years, I pursued my passion for music, releasing my first album and performing all over LA & in NYC. I became the spokesperson for the largest Asian food festival in LA, and got to be interviewed on NBC, FOX, LA Times, and NPR. I dabbled in on-screen hosting and acting. I read inspiring books and traveled often.

Essentially, I discovered that I could create a lifestyle that I absolutely love. I deeply enjoy the process of creating my dream life: the journey to embracing myself, aligning with my vision, and building the habits and skills to make that life a reality.
