Born and raised in Hawai'i, I am proud to be Native Hawaiian and have a deep connection to my culture and heritage. My mother is pure Hawaiian and my father is of German, Irish, and Dutch descent, giving me a unique perspective that blends tradition with diversity. I am married and blessed with a beautiful, blended family of eight children, which has taught me the true meaning of patience, balance, and unconditional love.
Being raised in Hawai'i, I embrace the values of the Hawaiian culture, where family, community, and respect for others come first. I believe in treating people with kindness, integrity, and compassion, and I strive to share the Aloha Spirit in everything I do-both personally and professionally.
For 24 years, I have dedicated my career to the real estate profession I truly love. More than just a job, it is my calling and passion. I find great fulfillment in helping others achieve their homeownership dreams and guiding families through one of the most important decisions of their lives. Let’s start a conversation to see how I can help you with your real estate goals here in Hawai’i.

I became a REALTOR® to be the steady, responsive guide I’d want for my own family. From first showing to closing day, I focus on clear communication and calm, practical next steps.
Whether you’re buying in Pahoa, Hilo, Keaau, Waimea, or Kailua-Kona, my goal is simple: help you make confident decisions and feel supported the entire way.
