ABOUT
I was born in Manila and grew up in Los Angeles. Moving homes every few years resulted in my deep desire to find security within myself and develop my inner compass. I didn’t know it then but these experiences were the foundation for the work I offer as a Creative Director, Photographer, Brand Strategist, & Mindfulness Guide. Through my offerings, I work with clients on branding (how to cultivate the self & define your essence), photography (capturing beauty), and creative direction (manifesting a vision from concept into final creation).
Nature guides my work and personal healing journey.
As a visual storyteller with empathic gifts, my photography is one medium in which I capture stories and elevate the essence of an individual or brand. I shoot fashion, editorial, portrait, and still life photography for Fashion, Lifestyle, & Wellness brands.

In 2018, I launched NATURE AND INTENT- a creative studio for conscious and wellness brands offering Branding, Photography, Web Design, & Content Production. I use my creative channeling and claircognizant gifts to support clients in sharing their medicine and offerings with the world. As the Creative Director, I co-create, collaborate, and facilitate the process of creating and being. When I look back at my creative career spanning 12+ years, I am most proud & passionate about telling stories and collaborating on manifesting creative visions.
My dharma is to create and ignite others to live their ‘nature and intent’.
I currently reside in Ojai, California where you can find me creating, self-healing, being in nature, and receiving insights from practicing sacred rituals. I practice mindfulness, cha dao tea ceremony, reiki, herbalism, and compassion. I often write and share my personal journey and insights on my Instagram, diary, and Youtube. A recent passion project of mine launched in 2021 is a conscious collaboration with my partner to curate mindful goods for your home and adornment.
