Growing up in Hawai'i, beauty was everywhere. Finding beauty and the aloha spirit rooted in the hearts and minds of the people. I was taught to be humble, to stand up for those that can't for themselves, and kokua the world. When things get rough look to the ocean. There you find peace of mind... I reside in San Francisco. Joys are writing, being in nature, good music, sun shine, and seeing the world.
