Meet the team

We are a collective of Asian-American women creatives and entrepreneurs dedicated to crafting a unique, inclusive urban oasis in San Francisco. Together, we are committed to enlivening the city through the transformative power of arts & crafts. We believe in fostering a community where creatives thrive, where connections are forged, and where inspiration flourishes.

Ava

Ava is a China-born, Hawaii-raised adventurer turned product designer and investor. She brings her diverse background and entrepreneurial spirit to our team.


Raised by a family of strong, female small business owners, she co-founded a Women’s Investment Club, growing a global community of investors from 5 to 300 during the pandemic. As a contributing writer to Fodor’s San Francisco and Airbnb Superhost, Ava delights in sharing the city's hidden gems with visitors and transplants to San Francisco.


A recovering lawyer, she's excited to return to her first love of arts & crafts, leveraging her experience managing billion-dollar IPOs into retail operations. Away from the screen, Ava enjoys doodling in watercolor, practicing yoga, or diving into a good book.

Jenny

Jenny's journey as a multi-disciplinary designer and entrepreneur reflects her passion for exploration and connection. With a rich background in driving product strategy and UX design for marketplace platforms, she champions small businesses and local artisans, empowering them to thrive in competitive markets.

Jenny's experience also extends to curating immersive event experiences and pop-up boutiques. Grounded in the belief in the transformative power of working with ones hands, she is dedicated to cultivating inclusive maker’s spaces that inspire everyone to embrace their creativity fully.

In quiet moments, Jenny likes to center her energy in the soothing rhythm of the pottery wheel and cherished self-care rituals.

Diana

Diana brings her expertise as a people operations professional with an interdisciplinary skillset to our team. With an extensive background in restaurant operations, she has honed her skills in managing diverse teams and delivering exceptional customer experiences.

Diana's passion for food extends beyond the kitchen; she has curated memorable dining experiences at renowned restaurants and organized successful food festivals that celebrate local cuisines and artisans. Diana is a fervent advocate for injecting more creativity and fun (and mochi donuts!) into people's lives.

When she's not curating connected workplaces, you'll find Diana exploring the Ferry Building's farmers market or baking artisanal pastries to unwind.
