About Me

Hi there,

I’m launching this blog to document my journey as a modern “umma” (mom in Korean), sharing insights and lessons learned as I navigate this new role with the perspective of a Korean American.

While my primary goal is personal reflection, I hope my experiences can resonate with and support other ummas, moms, mamas, madres, and so on as we build a village together.

I’m a new mom to a young toddler, with plans to expand our family. In my previous life, I spent over 10 years working in high-end fashion in NYC, but now I’m based in Austin, TX.

Join me as I share stories, recipes, and ideas to inspire and support fellow parents on their own family adventures. I hope you find inspiration and tips for creating a loving and harmonious home environment.

This is a space for my self-reflection, capturing the late-night reading sessions, consultations with medical professionals, strategies to create multicultural children, and the constant second-guessing that comes with being a umma.
