Join host, Mary Vallarta, as she shares helpful information and inspiring stories from AAPI individuals who bravely broke free of limiting expectations and traditions to follow their creative, artistic, or entrepreneurial passions. Mary comes from a Pilipino immigrant family and grew up in LA's Historic Filipinotown. She is a Fractional CMO based in Venice, CA who leads growth-stage multi-location businesses like restaurants and lifestyle concepts to enter and dominate new markets. Her expansive career includes working as a buyer for major retailers like Macy's and BCBG, launching and scaling multiple fashion and hospitality concepts in high profile markets like LA, NY, SF, and Boston, as well as leading Marketing & Creative for a national restaurant concept. But the most valuable experience Mary continues to relish is parenting her two kids with her husband, Enrico.
