Hi I’m Kina !
So glad you’re here.


ABOUT KINA

Currently the Social Media Manager at Slalom, I bring nearly a decade of experience in digital strategy and storytelling—translating complex ideas into clear, engaging content that drives results.

From regional campaigns to global brand strategy, I blend data-driven insight with creative vision to build social experiences that resonate and perform.

Though socials are my primary focus, my background spans more than a decade in the digital realm of design and copywriting. I’ve spent over 10 years collaborating across disciplines—writers, designers, photographers, and videographers—to integrate social seamlessly into broader creative ecosystems, spark innovation, and elevate the work we do together.

INSPIRATION

Folks who inspire me in socials, design, art, photography, and food.

I’m a resident of Tacoma, but Kyoto will always be home.
I love long walks, extra ice in my coffees and second hand gossip. 

Currently, my life consists of:

Picking through the jungle that is my garden
(and what the squirrels didn’t beat me to)

Diving into the art of block print carving

Being an auntie to the best niece in the entire world
