About

Growing up in Hawaii, I was exposed to the beauty of our earth’s colors, enriched food, and natural miracles. I indulged in various cuisines, beautiful mountains, and crystal clear waters.

In time, I left my island paradise, played Division 1 women’s soccer in college, and graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Civil Engineering with a Minor in Business Administration.

After graduating, starting a new career in engineering, and navigating a life of living on my own, I spent my free time leaning into what I loved, food. My desire to capture moments, create recipes, and share everything with the world led me to start Nutti Nelli. 

Nutti Nelli was a place for me to share recipes, tips, health & wellness content, and my photography. Through Nutti Nelli, I’ve met incredible people and gained friends that have turned into family. As I continue to create content for my Nutti Nelli blog, I also love to help others through photography, content creation, social media, and marketing. 

I live in Denver, Colorado with my fiance Marco and my favorite child (well cat) Kai. I wear many hats, say yes to any adventure, love the people I hold near, and will never forget my roots.

To describe myself, work, and overall way of life… it’s all about the details, but take a step back and admire the masterpiece.
