I was born and raised in Kona, Hawaii. Specifically, I was raised in Holualoa, a small farming town on the slopes of Mount Hualalai. My maternal grandparents were farmers with coffee and macadamia nuts being their primary crops. Every weekend and every school vacation we were working in the farm. I learned to value hard work, working together, and the importance of family.
I attended Kona Nightingale Preschool, Holualoa Elementary, Kealakehe Intermediate, Konawaena High School (c/o '94), and earned my Bachelors in Education at the University of Hawaii at Manoa to become a teacher. My dad always told me that education is something no one can take away from you. That importance of education led me to become a teacher.
