Current board member since 2025

 

As a southern California native growing up watching Trojan football and determined to study at a top accounting school, Tracy dreamt of attending the University of Southern California (USC) where she graduated with a BS in Accounting.  She served as member of the Student Honor Council, Accounting Society, and Accounting TA for esteemed Emeritus Professor and former Assistant Dean Merle Hopkins.  USC’s strength of community and strong academics aligned with Tracy’s values and upbringing. Tracy is first generation American.  Both of her parents were born in Samoa and were huge advocates of education and family.  Growing up as the middle of five children gave Tracy the tools to navigate multiple personalities and complex challenges in any group setting.     

Tracy’s natural curiosity and work ethic led her to critical finance roles at major turning points in the digital media and entertainment landscape.  She was able to combine her passion for numbers, ability to simplify complex concepts, and desire to be at the cutting edge of entertainment by becoming an expert in the digital media and tech space. With experience spanning from social network pioneer MySpace (Fox ACQN) to Maker Studios (Disney ACQN) based out of London, and most recently Riot Games, creator of League of Legends, Tracy has been at the forefront of where technology, media and entertainment meet.  She entered each role with no direct industry experience and quickly became a subject matter expert.

Beyond Tracy’s professional roles, her current role as mother proves to be unlike the others, as she’s not a subject matter expert, but enjoys learning from the tiny teacher in her house.  In her spare time, she enjoys Brooklyn life and the four seasons of NYC with daughter, Penelope, and partner, Jake.  Tracy loves to travel, is a certified kundalini yoga instructor and enjoys meditation and hikes.  Fashion, vintage clothing/jewelry and random facts spark joy!
