Hi, my name is Paloma. I was born and raised in Kailua-Kona, Hawai’i, and am now based in New York City. I am a beach bum and overachiever all in one. Carrying this spirit with me every day in all facets of my life.
I am a creative director, brand strategist, and painter.
My work ethic and perspective are a harmonious blend of both energies that I live between: the islands' all-encompassing peace and spiritual charge, and New York’s ambition, precision, and high-caliber community.
All of my work has one common theme and focus: storytelling.
Through my photoshoot concepts, working with Ralph Lauren's Global Brand Image Team, brand strategy, modeling, and my art—it all comes back to world-building and telling a story.
Stories reach people's hearts. Stories foster connection and inspire. Stories make people dream.
Storytelling is the North Star in my work.
I love creating and letting the story unfold. No matter the medium, I believe it to be my most valuable skill.
