GABE, CREATIVE LEAD

Hometown: Kaneohe

Years at ARIA Studios: Started freelancing in 2016. Came on staff in 2018.

My favorite travel destination: Barcelona, Spain. Relaxed vibes like Hawaii. Rich art culture and amazing food. Reminds me of home- same same, but different!

One of my most memorable meals: Omakase at 22Kailua, a very small hole-in-the wall sushi bar tucked in the back of a coffee shop. A very unique experience.

One of my most memorable weddings: Grace + Edwin. Fun couple, lovely vows and speeches. Just a classic, beautiful wedding. It was a joy editing this one (scroll down to view their wedding film)!
