      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Creating an Employee Volunteer Program - Curated Volunteer Shifts</image:title>
      <image:caption>I understood that the first step was getting people signed up, but they would not do it if it was too complicated. I created a booking system and partnered with local charities to create volunteer opportunities for GTA team members to sign up for easily. I made sure to visit every department and inform them about the new program. Additionally, I presented it during every new hire orientation to ensure that everyone was aware of it.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Creating an Employee Volunteer Program - Volunteering Is Great For the Organization</image:title>
      <image:caption>Teams rallied to support causes that their members were passionate about. They met up on weekends to paint buildings, sort through donations, or plant seeds. It was a great way to build team morale. In fact, my graduate capstone was based on the program, and I found that it improved the organizational culture at GTA.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Innovative Programs</image:title>
      <image:caption>I strive to create a memorable experience for all my events, but achieving that "WOW" factor can be challenging on a limited budget. Recently, I designed a playful Candy Land backdrop for a back-to-school Ice Cream Social for military children. This project required over 500 balloons, nine hours of assembly time, and cost $56, but with determination and hard work, we were able to bring the vision to life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Innovative Programs - Imagination Takes Flight</image:title>
      <image:caption>This job allowed me to make all my Pinterest Boards come to life! I took the budgetary restraints as a new challenge. I was able to innovate with minimal costs. Simple touches like adding little flags to cupcakes, scooping out balls from the surface of a watermelon, and creating on-theme names can help elevate the experience.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Distance Programs for the Pandemic - Movie Night Kits</image:title>
      <image:caption>Military kids were out for the summer but had to stay home because of the pandemic. So I created a program that helped them have fun experiences at home. In this example, I handed out Movie Night Kits that included popcorn and popcorn bags (like how you’d get it in the theater), soda cans, and more. Families also got to choose from a stack of DVD and Blu-ray titles to take home and keep.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Work Portfolio - Distance Programs for the Pandemic - Drive Thru Delivery</image:title>
      <image:caption>The drive-thru format made the delivery easy and safe for military families. Every week, we delivered a new fun activity. The program was hugely successful and became so popular that a line of up to 20 vehicles would pile up 30 minutes before the drive-thru opened. Children would look forward to their kits each week, and parents would rush to get in line during their lunch breaks for a coveted Boredom Buster kit.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - About Me</image:title>
      <image:caption>I was just three years old when my family and I immigrated to Guam. While the language barrier made me timid as a child, I eventually found a way of expressing myself through marketing. I love when I can connect people with products and services that improve their lives. I am obsessed with reading, traveling, and learning new things.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - Passion for Public Service</image:title>
      <image:caption>I believe that hard work should make a difference in the world, not just to a company’s bottom line. I have had the great privilege of creatively marketing some of the world’s most recognized brands. But I see myself working in the public sector and effecting positive change in the world around me.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Creative Samples - Boredom Busters</image:title>
      <image:caption>During the COVID-19 pandemic, I was challenged to find a method of delivering quality programs to the Naval Base Guam community while maintaining safety guidelines, including social distancing. I designed a program for the USO called Boredom Busters where military families could pick up a different activity kit each week. My job was to procure the materials, assemble up to 140 kits, design the posters and inserts, and deliver these in a drive-thru fashion in a designated parking lot. The program was immensely successful, with families waiting in line up to 30 minutes early to ensure they get a kit!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Creative Samples - Gratitude, all the way.</image:title>
      <image:caption>There are many ways of expressing gratitude and I believe the cheesier, the better! My background in retail taught me that packaging is half the fun. Something as simple as a gift tag can make all the difference in a product’s impact. These Lifesavers for U.S. Naval Hospital workers were so cute, it was featured on @TheUSO’s Instagram with over 117K followers and my gift tag design was replicated in other USOs in the Pacific.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Creative Samples - Brace for Impact</image:title>
      <image:caption>I do my best to deliver that WOW effect at each of my events, but it’s not always easy to do on a budget. This fun candy land backdrop was made for a back-to-school Ice Cream Social for military kids. It took over 500 balloons, 9 hours of assembly, $56, and a lot of determination to create.</image:caption>
