Hey everyone, I’m Kaori. A mom to the best toddler boy and our lively husky/boxer/German shepherd mix. I am also a wife to the most supportive husband in life, career, and sport. I discovered triathlon and Wildflower in my first year in college at Cal Poly SLO as a competitive runner and swimmer. This sparked a lifelong journey of racing and coaching. Wildflower has always been my favorite triathlon. As Wildflower’s official photographer for many years, I was beyond thrilled to return in 2025 and to document the incredible comeback!!!
