Yesterday I hit a year at @sfgate.com! 🥹 One whole year of being SFGATE Girl! Heading into the latter half of the year with bigger and better videos, and continuing my mission of making news fun.

Very proud of myself that I got this super San Francisco shot of a cable car passing through frame for our #Nintendo SF video that came out yesterday 😁😁😁🚃🌁 (video out on all @sfgate.com socials except this app because Bluesky only limits videos to a minute lol).

Nintendo San Francisco (the second ever US store) officially opened to the public yesterday! @amandabartlett.bsky.social and I were one of the lucky few to get a sneak peek of the store before opening day. Watch us play Mario Kart on the 15-foot-tall gaming wall!

Look at everyone serving looks and vibing to some excellent R&B/Soul at a late night museum after-party 😌💅🏼. Attendants even got to see the museum’s exhibitions while munching on free caviar. 12 out of 10 experience.

Didn’t have to bake under the #Coachella Valley sun to see Ravyn Lenae perform this week — she stopped by the #deyoung museum last night and we all got to see her up close and center!
