About
dream + inspire + live + love
. . .
Hello! I’m Jessica, the creator behind Coco/Mingo. I started this site as a visual diary and collection of all the beauty in this world through carefully curated photos, inspiration, and color stories.
I currently live in the quaint and unique borough of Brooklyn and work in the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, New York. I keep an “organized mess” and I’m pretty obsessive when it comes to details. A few things I dream, inspire, live, and love: a beautiful home, my friends + family, drool worthy eats, exotic travels, quaint little towns, pretty color combinations, hand lettering and typography, nature at it’s finest, breathtaking views, natural and organic products, a few more hours of sleep, growing in yoga, and animals! I named this blog after my two furry loves who taught me how to love, Cocoa and Domingo.

You’re so brilliant, Jessica! I just adore you and wish we could sit down for coffee sometime. 🙂 I’d love to pick your brain, for sure. 😉

Thank you Simone! I get that A LOT from people here in NYC! More opportunities elsewhere, obviously. It’s hard to explain, but I know Hawaii will always be my home and there for me when I eventually do move back 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by and your kind words! xo
