BIOGRAPHY
passionate storyteller, web designer, and graphic artist, I blend creativity and purpose in everything I do. As an author, my writing explores the complexities of love, passion, and human connection—always with a touch of boldness and authenticity.

With every book purchased, a portion of proceeds is donated to non-profit organizations supporting those affected by the Maui wildfires and other community-based initiatives across Hawai?i. Giving back to the islands that inspire my work is at the heart of my creative journey.

Beyond the page, I’m a dedicated web designer and digital marketer, helping small businesses grow and thrive through strong design, strategy, and branding. I founded Kihei Web Design LLC to bring professional, mainland-level creativity and innovation to the Islands—because I believe every local business deserves a powerful online presence.

An activist at heart, I’m driven by a desire to uplift others, support local communities, and advocate for positive change—whether through art, technology, or storytelling.

When I’m not writing or designing, you’ll find me exploring Maui’s underwater world as an avid scuba diver or soaking in the island’s inspiring beauty. Kihei isn’t just my home—it’s my muse.
