Born and raised on Hawaii Island, I grew up on my family's coffee farm in Holualoa and spent much of my childhood exploring Kona's natural wonders. After completing high school, I earned a degree in Journalism, which led to a career in travel writing. I returned home in 2021 with my husband to be close to relatives and start a family of our own. Since moving back, I've been involved in my family's local businesses, spanning both the construction and agricultural sectors. I'm honored to be part of these industries on the Big Island and am deeply grateful to call Kona home once again.As a real estate investor and small business owner, I am committed to enhancing our community and finding ways to add sustainable value to a property.
