this post marks my 10 years in LA, and also, coincidentally, my 1000th (😱!) post on this platform. i decided to share 10 photos that encapsulate the most meaningful moments from my time as an LA transplant. tough to fit everything into 10 squares, but here goes… starting with:

1. 2013 / i stood at the door of my parents home in boston in the middle of the night, my life tucked away into 2 suitcases, willingly nervous to step into the unknown. i cried the whole flight. i was so afraid. but i knew in my heart, these were the type of big girl decisions that i needed to start making for myself.

2. 2013 / had my first meal in LA atop a foldable ikea table with sushi from the market down the street and no other furniture in my home. this view was more than anything i could’ve dreamed of. little tokyo, and my not-pictured sushi meals, were the start of my life in LA.

3. 2013 / my first roommate, @lovevely, and i (mostly she) hosted the best dinner parties in our apt. a community of friends started to form.

4. 2014 / i joined the dtla running group and found a friend to run a half marathon with. i felt extremely thankful for my body this day. my ultimate goal is to run the boston marathon one day tho.. someone hold me accountable👀

5. 2015 / my first work secondment, in india. so much self reflection during this time, but the key takeaway i keep going back to is that no matter where/who we are in this world, no matter what language, culture, or religion we hold close to our hearts, we are all human, and we are all more similar than we are different. humanity should unite us, not divide us.

6. 2017 / three friends pick up a mic with no other intentions than to share our stories and have some fun.. @asianbossgirl is formed.

7. 2018 / my second secondment in madrid, spain, and my first time in europe. 25 cities in 3 months. i learn how to be alone and happy, while also deeply valuing companionship.

8. 2021 / i quit my decade-long finance job, and the today show interviews @asianbossgirl.

cont’d in the comments..

Water fun at home aNd in nature yesterday! 🏞️ Nature is way better cause it doesn’t require 30 min of cleaning and blowing up last summer’s toys 🥵😅 I made the noob mistake of not properly storing the water toys we were given/gifted last yr.. Won’t make that mistake again “Alexa, buy an electric pump please!” But I figure hand pumping and scrubbing an inflatable pool in the summer heat while your toddler waits impatiently is a rite of passage for all dads 😆

Proud of you @wongfuphil for the release of your first book!!!!!😱😲🤩

No one will ever see the many late nights you put into this book. All those times you’d say “ok, it’s 1am, I have to write an essay about AzN PrYdE now”, or the time you said “I have to interview 2000s hot import models… for work” lol, or when we were in Hawaii and you had to stay back at the hotel to write about bhangra. Quite honestly, you had no time to do any of it. But you knew how important documenting the Asian American experience was for our community, and you weren’t going to pass up the opportunity to do so. I’m so damn proud of you for getting it done.

This is the kind of book I wish we all had stockpiled in our school libraries when we were kids. A book cataloging three decades of Asian American history from the 90s to now. A book that would’ve shown young girls like me that there are so many people out there doing the most fascinating of things, and who didn’t look too different from me either. Each page, each interview, each comic and flowchart and illustration is as inspiring as the next.

And now I can say I’m married to a published author YALL!!! ;)

Out in book stores now. Get your copy today! 🤗 It’s $5 off AND SIGNED by Philip at the @barnesandnoble in Long Beach!! Say what?! Such a steal! LOL @riseaabook

There’s something so special about a physical photo album (this one is created with @zola) – something you can touch and share with your special someone and for future generations to come. @wongfuphil and I have known each other since 2008 (we met in Boston :)), so we have a lottt of photos between the two of us. To hand-select my favorite moments and memorialize them into an album was a very intentional exercise, and one that made me reflect on how grateful I am for every part of our journey together, esp. before the arrival of our baby in Dec. This is such a special time where it’s just us two, before our lives are changed forever.

If you are looking for a gift for that special someone this holiday season, this photo album is of the highest quality – crisp photographic printing, lush paper, with a super luxe cover. Check out my IG stories for a link to create your album along w/ a special discount. @zola #ad #PicturePerfectWithZola

Happy birthday to my hubby :) here’s a look back to each of the titles he’s taken on these past 13 years: friend, boyfriend, fiancé, husband, and now, ZADDY (without question, in the last video😜😚). You impress me like no other as you take on every single stage of life with the utmost grace, humility, stability, and confidence. There’s no one else I’d rather be on this journey of life with. No one. To the man of my dreams, and to hoopiter and beyond💫 I love you so so much @wongfuphil. Hbd 😘
