Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting
Last night I had the pleasure of attending the 87th annual Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting ceremony with my younger sister. This is one of the most iconic symbols at Christmas and in NYC.
This year’s 77 ft tall tree originates from Florida… upstate New York. weighing approximately 14 tons, 46 feet in diameter and about 70-75 years.
While it was freezing, it was very surreal to see the tree lighting in person!
Giving Tuesday 2019
This year for GivingTuesday, I donated toys to Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to give to children during the holidays! 🎁
Giving Tuesday was created in 2012 as a day to encourage people to do good, celebrated the Tuesday after Thanksgiving.
Toys for Tots is a non profit organization run by the US Marines that collects and delivers toys to less fortunate children.
Dia de Muertos in Mexico City
I had the amazing pleasure of taking part in some festivities for Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) in Mexico City this year!
Dia de los Muertos is a Mexican holiday to celebrate and remember those who have passed away. This holiday is celebrated on October 31 to November 2nd.
Candy Skeleton & Pan de Muerto
For Dia de los Muertos, families will create an ofrenda, which is kind of similar to an alter/shrine created for those who have passed away. The ofrendas feature a photo of the deceased and includes the 4 elements, water, wind, earth and fire in the form of papel picado, flowers, sugar skulls and candles.
Catrina is the skeleton figure that is often associated with Dia de Muertos, who honors and protects those who have passed away.
Check out some of the amazing ofrendas designed by my team in Mexico City this year!
Happy Halloween!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I hope everyone has a spooky halloween!

Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!
This year I have a lot to be thankful for. I am so grateful for all of my family, friends and opportunities I have had this year.
I am thankful for my family and all the help they have given me with my move to my new apartment.
I am thankful to my colleagues at work for supporting and assisting me to get my new role at work and to my new boss and team for taking a chance on me by giving me this new opportunity. I am grateful for all of the travel opportunities that have arisen as a result of me taking this new role all of the great people I have met along the way!
And most importantly thank you to my family and friends for all of the love not only this year but throughout time!
I hope all of you take the time to cherish all that you have and thank those who have played a part in your life.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
