After years of fueling the success of mega brands, I realized that my achievements came at a high personal cost.

 

I was trading my energy for accolades, titles, and big paychecks. Today, my mission is to help people like you master their mindset and manifest the life you truly love.

 

The Corporate Climb

In the early stages of my career, I climbed the corporate ladder rapidly, managing high-profile accounts and earning impressive accolades. On the outside, it looked like I had it all—a successful career, big paychecks, and a string of prestigious titles. But behind the scenes, I was squeezing in a social life, training for endurance races, renovating a home, and trying to cultivate a life with my now-husband. It was fast-paced and exciting, but I was living a completely segmented life. Working 80-hour weeks and managing a $60 million high-profile account, I was selling products I didn't believe in. The stress was mounting, I was drowning in overwhelm, and my health was suffering. One day, as I looked in the mirror, I realized this lifestyle was draining my soul. I was burnt out. This was my wake-up call to make a major shift. So, I tossed off the golden handcuffs and jumped off the ladder towards an uncharted path of purpose.

 

The Journey of Transformation

Leaving behind the security of my corporate job was both terrifying and exhilarating. I channeled my energy into building something meaningful. Over the years, I became a 5X founder, with one of my ventures being featured by FORBES as a testament that yes, you can build a successful business and earn an income by doing what you love. I spent a year traveling the world, immersing myself in different cultures and gaining over 1,000 hours of yoga and mindfulness studies. This period of exploration and self-discovery was transformative. I led retreats focused on building schools and health clinics in economically challenged communities, which deepened my sense of purpose and connection to global well-being.

 

Building OKIINO

One of my proudest achievements is founding OKIINO, an athletic apparel company inspired by my active lifestyle as a surfer, water woman, yogi, and triathlete. An idea that began with a sunburn on a surf trip, quickly grew to gain a cult following among water women and receive acclaim from renowned publications like Outside, ELLE, SELF, Sunset, Yoga Journal, LA Times, SF Chronicle, and Wired. It was incredibly rewarding to see a brand rooted in my passions resonate with so many others.

 

Savvyself: Living My Purpose

Today, I am the founder and coach at Savvyself, a manifestation of all my passions and gifts. At Savvyself, I support others through coaching, workshops, and retreats, helping them unlock their potential and live authentically. In addition to my work at Savvyself, I serve as a Mentor In Residence and Adjunct Lecturer of Entrepreneurship at the University of Arizona, guiding the next generation of entrepreneurs.

 

I also help startups as a Partner at 05 Advisors and am a board member for two nonprofits. Co-founding the Sunset Women's Collective, a growing group focused on manifestation, has been another fulfilling venture, allowing me to connect with and uplift other women.

 

Life in Hawaii

Recently, my family and I manifested our dream of moving to Hawaii. Here, I spend my days working on inspiring projects, cultivating community, raising my 7-year-old son Tanner, and surfing with my husband John. This balanced lifestyle allows me to align my professional endeavors with my personal passions, creating a harmonious and fulfilling life.

 

Mission and Vision

My greatest hope is to elevate others, creating a ripple effect of positive change. Fulfillment is a practice, not a destination, and my mission is to help you master your mindset and manifest the life you truly love. Through my coaching, workshops, and retreats, I aim to inspire and empower women to live their most authentic and joyful lives.
