Adventure-seeker. Seriously outdoorsy. Inclined toward swaggy music of all genres. Liberal arts grad. Francophone. Ex-Park Ranger. Japanese-Thai. Native of Berkeley/Oakland. Huge A's fan. Goofball.

Favorite places: Crater Lake, Paris, rural Japan, Bagan (Myanmar), the Oakland Coliseum. I've lived in the first three of those.

I work for a small firm doing clean energy research in Pioneer Square, on the policy side. My favorite part of my job is designing infographics! Outside of work: climbing, hiking, running, sketching, seeking out sunshine, drinking and being hungover.

I love exploring the world, and want to leave it better than I found it.
