Aloha! Born and raised in the Hawaiian Islands, I've performed music since the age of 7. In my early twenties I started my own music label and to date have released 5 independent records, each unique in style and approach. I love the freedom of allowing the present to influence my values and artistic expression, rather than a predetermined financial or status goal. I cherish my friends, who love and support me without condition. I am proficient in a traditional Hawaiian style of guitar called "Ki Ho'alu, or "slack key". I sing in multiple languages, and have a deep passion for philosophy, individual and mass psychology, and nature. I am one-quarter Chinese (Southern), French, English, Eastern European and Native American (Chippewa Tribe).
