I’ve had the honor and pleasure of writing for Hawai‘i’s travel industry for nearly 30 years. My features have delved into everything from favorite foods and festivals to exploring our environment and sharing the cultures, practices and traditions of our multi-ethnic communities. These articles provide a look at one aspect of my writing style. If you’d like more information or would like to discuss freelance opportunities or collaborations, don’t hesitate to contact me. Mahalo!
