About Hydee

Hydee Marie has chalked up over 20 years of experience in project management, PR marketing, and turning creative dreams into reality.

Starting her career in the Philippines where she rose through corporate ranks in Sales, she soon booked a flight to the Los Angeles in 2006 to pursue creative entrepreneurship. There, she became a designer and artisan for a few local jewelry brands and simultaneously launched her career in event and fashion photography.

Alongside her business, she signed on as a manager and graphic designer for the magazine industry. Throughout the next 17 years, her portfolio, skill set, and collaborators have cemented her as multi-hyphenate business and marketing consultant for different brands.

Currently, she is a co-partner for Empire Models Los Angeles, a co-founder of Hiraya Magazine, and a proud pillar and advocate for the Fil-Am community in the United States through Pinoys of America and the Tambay Lang community.
