PERSONAL INFORMATION
Majoring in journalism and media studies and communications.
Hui O Lokahi (Hawai’i Club) Co-Chair 2022-23
 
WHAT’S THE BEST LINFIELD CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AND WHY? JAMS 321 played a crucial role in helping me decide what I wanted to major in.
 
WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INSPIRATION IN YOUR LIFE?  My Kumu hula, Olana Ai has taught me so many important life lessons throughout my life. Most importantly she taught me to follow my dreams and to never live with regrets!
 
THE GREATEST PRINCIPLE OR LESSSON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN… I've learned that life is full of ups and downs. With those trials and tribulations, it is okay to seek help from your teammates, friends, coaches, etc.
 
AS A LINFIELD STUDENT-ATHLETE, MY GOALS INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY FOR MY TEAM ARE… I hope to create strong relationships with my teammates. Being from Hawai'i, the idea of being an 'Ohana (family) has always been important to me. By creating an environment where we feel more like a family than just a team, we can truly thrive on and off the mat.
 
WHY DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE TO BE ON THE TEAM? Being apart of this program for the last three years has allowed me to establish relationships with various individuals to build friendships that I will cherish forever.
 
WHAT TYPES OF ACTIONS DO YOU PLAN TO TAKE TO MAKE OUR TEAM BETTER THAN PREVIOUS SEASONS? I hope to establish a positive team environment from the beginning. I am motivated to do what I can to ensure that my teammates have a memorable season on and off the mat b y helping to plan team bondings as well as being a role model.
