Hello! I'm Mele (pronounced meh-leh). I love putting myself outside of my comfort zone, asking questions, and being open to experience new things and learn as much as I can from the place I'm in and the people I'm surrounded by. I care a lot about creating meaningful relationships with people, and am on a life mission to live the best life I possibly can - according to me, for me. I would say I’m very easy going and understanding. As long as I’m surrounded by good people and love, I am happy!

A little background - I was born and raised in Kaneohe, Hawaii on the East side of the island of Oahu. I just graduated this past June from DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois with my Bachelor's and Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction and User Experience Design. I will be moving to the San Francisco Bay Area in September to start my first adult job as a Product Designer!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach you about me and my life growing up in Hawaii and will cook while sharing my philosophies about life! I hope in return you can teach me all about your life and help me learn about your culture!
