Karina has spent more than ten years in luxury hospitality and events, caring for guests and productions where nothing is allowed to go wrong.
Her career has taken her across two very different worlds of service, China and Hawaii, and both taught her the same lesson. True luxury is not about excess. It is about how completely a guest is cared for, and how many things go right that they never had to think about.
She has managed VIP guests, led large teams, and run events where nothing is allowed to go wrong. She plans fluently in Mandarin and Cantonese, honors the traditions of Chinese and Korean families, and delivers the kind of service people remember long after the night ends.
Only Once, founded by Eric Lee, is a studio built around that standard. Karina leads the planning, with a team of stylists, coordinators, and trusted vendors on every event. Not a hotel's, not a template's. Yours, and no one else's.
