Hi I’m Kina !
So glad you’re here.


ABOUT KINA

Currently the Senior Social Media Manager at Slalom Build where I combine expertise in digital strategy with a passion for storytelling, translating complex concepts into accessible and engaging content.

Whether overseeing regional campaigns or global brand strategies, my approach is always to harness the synergy between analytical insight and creative vision to achieve measurable business outcomes.

Though socials are my primary focus, my background spans more than a decade in the digital realm of design and copywriting. I have a robust history of collaborating with an array of creative professionals including writers, photographers, videographers, and designers. This interdisciplinary collaboration is crucial to my work—it's the driving force behind the seamless integration of social media strategies with broader creative practices, sparking innovation and amplifying our collective impact.

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:

  1. Mapping out next year’s vegetable garden

  2. Diving into the art of block print carving

  3. Mastering the craft of pulling a flawless espresso shot

  4. Being an auntie to the best niece in the entire world
