THE LONG BEACH DENTIST
Our practice philosophy has been heavily influenced by Dr. Grella’s grandfather, who was a dentist for 40 years and always followed the Golden Rule: He never recommended dental treatments to patients that he would not believe in recommending for himself, and Dr. Grella upholds this same standard at his practice.
Dr. Grella has been practicing dentistry for over 15 years and he has extensive training from the Navy where he did his residency and active military duty.
Our office also has over 700 Google reviews... our patients LOVE our office and you will never find a dentist who is more passionate about Dentistry than Dr. Grella.
We promise if you come to our office you will love your experience and feel right at home.
New Horizons, Near & Far
There’s something magical about exploration, whether it’s discovering hidden gems in your own backyard or catching a flight across the globe to discover a new version of yourself.
Six years ago this month, I found myself aboard a harbor cruise, watching the sun cast golden ripples across the Pacific Ocean. I had just moved to Long Beach one year prior, after living on the East Coast for all my life. Everything still felt wonderfully new here. That impromptu adventure on the water reminded me that exploration doesn’t always require crossing oceans — sometimes it’s embracing a new city you’re just beginning to call home.
This July, we invite you to expand your horizons with us. Our cover story takes you on a journey of self-discovery through solo travel, showing how saying “yes” to yourself — whether in the mountains of Peru or the canyons of Mexico — often reveals strengths you never knew you had. As the writer discovers, the world is vast, beautiful and waiting for you to show up.
For those seeking a local getaway, our profile of a beloved Long Beach property celebrating its 50th anniversary shows that paradise can be just around the corner. Recently reclaiming its independence, this waterfront sanctuary offers a perfect staycation with Latin-infused cuisine, fire pits by the water and a front-row view of our city’s skyline.
The entrepreneurial spirit of exploration is alive in Long Beach as well. One of our Founding Partners, a powerhouse CPA firm, has established impressive roots here, transforming an entire floor of a downtown high-rise into a multimillion-dollar commitment to our community. Growing from two to twenty employees in just one year, they exemplify how exploration of new markets can lead to meaningful growth.
The journey continues with our profile of a Costa Rican poet based locally who shows how language and memory can bridge the distance between where we are and where we’ve been. Through bilingual verse, he explores how the scent of rain can instantly transport us across oceans and decades — proving that exploration happens within us as much as around us.
So this summer, I challenge you: Explore something. A new restaurant. A forgotten corner of your neighborhood. Or perhaps simply a new perspective. After all, the greatest discoveries often begin with a single step outside our comfort zones.
Until next month,

PASSPORT TO THE SELF
ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY GIA SILVA
GIA SILVA, PRESIDENT OF INTI REALTY, SHARES THE UNEXPECTED JOYS OF SOLO TRAVEL.
What’s the last thing you were curious about? I’ve always been the type who couldn’t help but ask questions — the kind of kid who wandered off in grocery stores and needed to know what was at the end of every road.
That curiosity never really went away — it just got a passport.
And suddenly, my questions weren’t just about the world around me; they were about the places I hadn’t yet been — unfamiliar cities, deep canyons, hidden pueblos, and parts of myself I didn’t even know existed.
But I quickly learned that if I waited for other people to check their PTO, their points, or even their mood, I’d never go anywhere. So one day, I said yes to myself. No group chat. No shared Google doc. Just me, my curiosity, and the urge to explore.
If I hadn’t said yes to that first solo trip, I never would’ve wandered into the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico. Oaxaca didn’t just welcome me — it seduced me. The warmth of its people, the depth of its culture, the way the colors and spices and sounds tangled into something almost holy. I took a cooking class with a local woman who taught me that real flavor comes from grinding chilies on a metate with your whole soul. I wouldn’t have returned again. And again. And again.
And one year, I arrived just in time for Día de los Muertos — marigolds and candles lighting up the night, families honoring their ancestors in a way that made me tear up more than once. It was reverent, joyful, and unforgettable. And just like that, I was hooked — not only on the places I hadn’t yet seen, but on discovering pieces of myself along the way.
If I hadn’t said yes to reading Born to Run, I never would’ve found myself deep in Mexico’s Copper Canyon running a

marathon alongside the legendary Rarámuri tribe. That canyon? It stretches across more than 25,000 square miles — rugged, wild, humbling terrain.
Somewhere around mile 18, I saw a Rarámuri woman struggling. Her leather sandal had snapped. Without thinking, I took off my Lululemon long sleeve and wrapped her foot so she could finish. We didn’t speak the same language, but we understood each other perfectly at that moment. If I hadn’t said yes to chasing roots, I wouldn’t have taken a 16-hour road trip through the Peruvian mountains to the tiny village where my grandmother grew up — Ayacucho.
I celebrated my birthday with five strangers and felt more seen than I ever have in a room full of people. They helped me find a hidden beach in the mountains — one my grandmother used to describe like a fairytale. It wasn’t a myth. It was magic. People always ask me if it’s scary traveling alone. Sometimes, sure. But what’s scarier? Never saying yes. Never running that race. Never standing in an old town square, feeling like time had stopped. Never discovering a culture that felt like it was meant for me.
A Rarámuri woman, her foot wrapped, sitting on a rock — she found the strength to continue.
“Traveling solo doesn’t mean being alone — it means being open. The more I explore the world, the more I find pieces of myself I didn’t know were missing.”
Traveling solo doesn’t mean being alone — it means being open. The more I explore the world, the more I find pieces of myself I didn’t know were missing. Being an explorer means asking questions, tasting things I can’t pronounce, learning customs that aren’t mine, and respecting the stories behind them.
It’s not about checking off places — it’s about letting each one change you just a little. I don’t wait anymore. I book the ticket. I show up. I say yes. Because the world is vast, beautiful, chaotic, surprising, and deeply human — and it’s out there, waiting for you to show up.

POWERHOUSE CPA FIRM EXPANDS INTO LONG BEACH

Boos & Associates Establishes Local Roots Through Community Engagement and Rapid Growth
A new player in Long Beach’s accounting scene is elevating the standard for financial expertise, bringing sophisticated solutions backed by Big 4 experience to local businesses.
Established in 2004, Boos & Associates is a mid-size regional CPA firm headquartered in Fresno with offices in Reedley, Las Vegas and now, Long Beach. Led by Managing Director Wayne Boos, the firm handles complex financial engagements for small to medium size businesses and high net-worth individuals.
While offering the full spectrum of general accounting and business consulting services, Boos & Associates provides expert services in three key areas: Tax, Assurance and Advisory Services.
WORLD CLASS TAX SOLUTIONS
Boos & Associates delivers unparalleled tax expertise, ensuring meticulous financial record management and regulatory compliance while providing personalized strategies that maximize deductions and minimize liabilities. Through proactive year-round communication and cutting-edge technology, they keep clients informed and confident while streamlining tax preparation with secure document access.
Vibrant lighting energizes Boos & Associates’ collaborative space, where innovative strategies take shape.
ASSURANCE – QUALITY CONTROL FOR YOUR FINANCIAL STORY
The assurance team at Boos & Associates reviews financial statements from an outsider’s perspective, thoroughly testing the details so decision-makers can rely on the numbers without second-guessing. Assurance builds trust in the information shared with owners, investors, bankers and regulators. This credibility can open doors to financing, strengthen stakeholder relationships and enable confident decision-making.
ADVISORY SERVICES – A NECESSITY IN TODAY’S ECONOMIC LANDSCAPE
For businesses seeking to thrive in today’s dynamic environment, partnering with an advisory practice is not just an option — it is a strategic imperative. Boos & Associates’ advisory services empower organizations to navigate complexity, optimize performance and achieve their vision of success by providing comprehensive financial frameworks, data-driven insights and advanced tools.
EXPANSION INTO LONG BEACH
In addition to its central location, Long Beach’s robust small business ecosystem and strong sense of community attracted Boos & Associates as they expanded into Southern California. The timing and opportunity aligned perfectly with their ambitions. José Sanchez and Jorge Enciso, who now drive business development for the firm, were already living in the area.
Sanchez, previously employed at Boos & Associates, brought valuable insight to the expansion: “You can’t just replicate something that you have in Fresno. You need somebody who knows the culture, the people.”
Enciso, who began his career as a private client banker with JP Morgan, added his perspective as a Long Beach resident: “It’s a different vibe here. It’s a big city with a small-town feel.”
Sanchez and Enciso are deeply engaged with the local community. Both men are members of the Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce, with Sanchez serving on the board of directors as well as the board for its Women’s Business Council. Enciso, a classical music enthusiast, sits on the board of directors for the Long Beach Symphony.
COMMITMENT TO THE COMMUNITY
Boos & Associates has made a substantial investment in Long Beach, occupying the entire 9th floor of 180 East Ocean Blvd. Completed in April, the fully renovated space represents a “multimillion dollar commitment to Long Beach,” says Brian Olson, the firm’s Advisory Director.
In just one year, their Long Beach office has grown impressively from two to 20 employees, most of whom live locally. This expansion is a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved, and it highlights the vibrant growth within the organization, which now boasts a total of 120 employees. The firm offers competitive salaries and a working environment that prioritizes wellness and balanced living. Their state-of-the-art office includes amenities such as a gym, wellness room and a dedicated mother’s room for nursing. Boos & Associates will host a grand opening celebration at their office this summer, featuring their fully stocked, built-in bar and entertainment area. For more information, email Jorge Enciso at

Q&A: JeanPierre Rueda On Poetry, Memory
JEAN-PIERRE RUEDA SHOWS US HOW HE RETURNS HOME THROUGH MEMORY AND POETRY.
Jean-Pierre Rueda has found a way to return to his childhood home in Costa Rica again and again — through memory and the written word.
The poet released his bilingual poetry collection Love Between Downpours last year. The book explores how poetry can bridge distance — across oceans, memories and generations. Rueda, who emigrated from Costa Rica as a teen, uses sensory memory, especially the scent of rain, to reflect on nostalgia, identity and belonging. We sat down with him to talk about how writing helps him stay connected to home, family and self.
WHAT INSPIRED LOVE BETWEEN DOWNPOURS?
It started with rain. I was driving home from Long Beach one summer, and it began raining just as I reached the 710. That smell — humid, earthy — instantly took me back to Costa Rica. I haven’t been back in over 20 years, but I felt like I was there. That moment of longing became the foundation for the book.
YOUR POEMS FEEL DEEPLY PERSONAL. HOW DOES FAMILY MEMORY SHAPE YOUR WORK?
When my brother and I emigrated, we didn’t see our mom for a year and a half. I was 15. We held onto old photo albums — trying to keep those memories alive. That desire to preserve moments became a kind of survival mechanism. Now, I try to bridge memory and sentiment to give others something hopeful through poetry.
WHAT WERE THE CHALLENGES OF WRITING A BILINGUAL BOOK?
It was originally going to be all in Spanish. But when I started doing readings, I saw how diverse the audiences were.
Some poems ended up flowing better in English, so I rewrote them. Being bilingual means I often think in two languages at once. I wanted the book to reflect that experience, even when the words aren’t literal translations. Some things — like the word aguacero — just don’t carry the same weight in English.
DID YOU DISCOVER ANYTHING NEW DURING THE WRITING PROCESS?
Yes — how universal the search for identity is. Whether people are immigrants or just moving from one place to another, there’s often a longing to belong, to remember. Poetry helped me tap into that and connect with others through shared experience.
HOW HAVE HISTORICAL FIGURES INFLUENCED YOUR POETRY?
I’m drawn to people who break out of the boxes they’re put in. One example is Franklin Chang-Díaz, the first Latin American astronaut. He’s Costa Rican and Chinese, and he came to the U.S. just to pursue his dream. Even with huge accomplishments, he’s not widely known. I want to highlight figures like him — people who’ve quietly shaped history and deserve to be seen.
WHAT’S NEXT FOR YOU?
I’m finishing a new bilingual collection focused on everyday heroes — teachers, artists, mentors. I’m also hosting a poetry segment on KTNQ 1020 AM, the Dodgers’ Spanish-language station.
ANY ADVICE FOR ASPIRING WRITERS?
Go to an open mic, read something out loud, write a single line. You never know what it might turn into.
“I will button up my chest with every decade I’ve lived far away from my birthplace.”
—Love Between Downpours
As long as Greg Guthrie has worked at Hotel Maya, the seaside getaway facing the Long Beach skyline has always given him a certain feeling.
“You feel like you’re on vacation, although you’re in a major city,” said the general manager. “You want to relax. You want to enjoy it.”
This year, the beloved Long Beach property stepped into a new era, officially parting ways with Hilton and reclaiming its independence. For Guthrie and his team, some of which have been with the hotel from the beginning in 1975, the shift wasn’t a dramatic departure — it was a natural evolution.
“We never really felt like we were defined by a brand,” Guthrie said. “We’ve always felt like we were Hotel Maya. That identity was always there. It just felt like the right time for everything to fall into place — for us to become more intimate with our community and our guests.”
Now, as Hotel Maya marks its 50th anniversary, Guthrie and his staff are leaning into everything that makes this waterfront enclave a destination for travelers and locals alike — bright, Bajamodern architecture, gently swaying palms, a manmade beach laced with seagrass and fire pits and a view of the
neighboring Queen Mary. Set on 14 lush acres at the edge of Queensway Bay, the hotel offers a front-row view of both the downtown skyline and the harbor.
Though it’s just across the water from the heart of the city, the resort feels a world away — tucked into its own palm-lined pocket of the coast. With artful landscaping, colorful design and pathways that invite wandering, Hotel Maya creates an atmosphere of both escape and ease.
The anniversary celebration this July will be a throwback through the decades.
“We’re doing themes from the ‘90s, ‘80s, and ‘70s as part of a countdown,” Guthrie explained. “We’re tying it all together through drinks, food and special events.”
And guests don’t need to go far to experience it all.
heart of it all is Fuego, the hotel’s open-air restaurant with sweeping views and a Latin-infused menu curated by Executive Chef Luis Torres.
“He’s really great at layering flavors and making every dish visually beautiful,” Guthrie said.
Inspired by coastal Latin American cuisine, Fuego offers fresh seafood, bold flavors and seasonal ingredients — served alongside panoramic views of the water. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch are available both indoors and on the spacious outdoor patio, steps from the water.
“We just want to keep creating memories. Not just for today, but for the next 50 years.”
— Greg Guthrie
“Start your day early, relaxing on your patio,” Guthrie said. “Slide open your door and let the sun reflect off the water and pour in.”
From there, it’s all about soaking up the atmosphere — maybe a swim in the oceanfront pool, a round of ping pong, a jet ski ride in the afternoon and s’mores by the fire pit as the sun sets.
The property boasts floating cabanas, seven fire pits, waterfront hammocks and a private boardwalk that doubles as a wedding aisle. And at the
Locals looking to enjoy the property for the day can book a day pass on ResortPass.com to access the resort’s outdoor heated pool. Whether you’re a guest or a local dropping in for brunch and a margarita, Fuego delivers. “You can’t go wrong with tacos,” Guthrie said. “And that’s something we do really well — tacos and margaritas.”
Hotel Maya is currently undergoing a full renovation, with refreshed guest rooms, updated landscaping, a revamped lobby and a facelift for Fuego expected by summer 2026.
“We just want to keep creating memories,” Guthrie said. “Not just for today, but for the next 50 years.”

The newest dining adventure at Long Beach Exchange.
Sosogu
The Long Beach Exchange has been a hub for adventurous diners — home to The Hangar food hall, Silverlake Ramen, Chocolate Bash and more. But until now, it’s been missing a standout sushi bar.
Enter Sosogu, the area’s newest Japanese BBQ and sushi restaurant.
Sosogu, which means “to pour or serve” in Japanese, was founded by Wallflowers’ guitarist Tobias Miller and his business partner Richard Gottlieb.
The Sushi Set with bluefin tuna sashimi,albacore, ora king salmon and seabream nigiri.
The pair’s modern concept brings both elevated sushi and Japanese BBQ under one roof, offering a refined yet approachable dining experience.
Recently, Long Beach City Lifestyle paid a visit to LBX to experience the kitchen’s creative range and careful execution.
Among the standout bites were the Hokkaido Scallop Carpaccio, a bright, citrusy dish laced with mandarin, jalapeño, and cilantro oil and the Sushi Set, featuring bluefin tuna sashimi, albacore, ora king salmon and seabream nigiri. Each piece was impeccably fresh and balanced.
To drink, the Lychee Pear Martini (infused with elderflower and topped with lychee caviar) was a playful yet elegant cocktail, while the Rising Sun — made with Kikori whisky, yuzu, and amaro — was a bold, citrus-forward favorite.
The JBBQ set brought the indulgence. We tried American wagyu brisket, A5 wagyu rib cap, and filet mignon with miso butter, paired with cabbage salad tofu and mushrooms — and we grilled it all ourselves at the table.
You might not expect it, but this new spot serves everything from Wagyu Shoyu Truffle Ramen to Salmon Mango rolls with tempura shrimp.
Whether you’re looking for your next date night spot, or you’re just really craving a SosoGuud roll after a hard workout at Ra Yoga next door, Sosogu is worth a visit.
Sosogu is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sundays, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Thursdays and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.
