I am a daughter, wife, mother, and kamaʻāina. I am also a Native Hawaiian storyteller who was fortunate to be raised by mākua who instilled in me both a desire to learn and a kuleana to serve my community.

My upbringing, immersed in mele, hula and cultural practices, along with my professional background in advertising and journalism has deeply influenced my work. With over a decade in Hawaiʻi's digital media landscape, working for various non-profit and for-profit agencies, my calling is to create compelling content that helps strengthen our connection to ʻike kūpuna and carve a pathway forward for our lāhui to thrive. I aim to support the growth of Hawaiʻi's small businesses and Native Hawaiian organizations.
