About
At this point in my academic career, I expect to graduate in Spring 2021 with my AA in Hawaiian Studies and Certificates in Human Resources. Alongside regular college, I am in attendance of Family Farm Training Network Cohort #5 and Council of Native Hawaiian Advancementʻs Kū Hana Business Cohort #1.
On weekends, my friends have formed a mobile restoration unit where we go all over to help people restore their land or get a project done on their farm. We use much of our farm goods to feed the communities who cannot afford healthy food. On occasion, I volunteer at Maui Historical Society or take the role of an active parent with my childrenʻs canoe club.
On Thursday April 16, 2020 I pulled my papers to run in the 2020 election for the House of Representatives District 9 Kahului, Hawaiʻi seat. May my servitude go before me.
