We are a Pop-Up Kitchen based out of North East L.A. created by a group of friends that wanted to share their love for this Hawaiian style snack food. We took the recipes that some of our associates grew up with in both Los Angeles and Hawaii and combined them with a few East L.A. style flavors. East Los Musubi wasn’t trying to recreate the classic O.G Musubi we started with those and added a few new cool variations to the menu. Read More>>

When I first got started with floral design, it was actually a group effort. A dear friend of mine was getting married and could not afford a florist, so a mutual friend along with myself decided to make all the floral arrangements for her. Our friend was a wedding photographer and pretty much walked me through the process as she had seen so many different designs and arrangements from shooting the weddings. Read More>>

I began practicing Tarot over a decade ago to hone my natural intuitive and empathic abilities. What started as a journey for my own personal healing led me to become a shamanic healer to help others as well. I sought out a few teachers and learned a variety of healing techniques. Read More>>
