About Me

Hi Hi Hi, my name is Nalani and I grew up in Whittier, CA. Following high school graduation I moved to San Diego for about 6 years. There I enjoyed my college years at San Diego State University while working for a non-profit organization called Racelegal.com. Following Racelegal.com I moved back to Los Angeles where I accepted a job with the Los Angeles Auto Show...a job I love! After 12 years of dating, John and I finally wed in 2004.

I have been drag racing since 97 and have recently completed a 2 year long project...the K-series CRX. Something most people don't know about me...I've been Hawaiian dancing since I was 7 years old...and I still love it!
