I was born in Hawaii so that makes me a "Boricua-Hawaiiana" and very proud of it. Married to a wonderful man, Retired Naval Master Chief John A. Ortiz, mother of three great children, a proud grandmother of five+ and a adorable great-grand-daughter.
My program "Alma Latina" (Latin Soul)is the longest-running Latin music radio program in the Pacific.

I also own and manage "Alma Latina Productions", a Latin
Entertainment Promotion/Event Planning Company.

bringing to Hawaii many Salsa/Latin groups from Puerto
Rico, New York, and California with much success.
To name a few; Yomo Toro, Costa Brava, Eddie Palmieri,
Adalberto Santiago, Willie Colon, Marc Anthony,Larry
Harlow's-- Latin Legends. World's Top Salsa DJ "Henry Knowles".
