About me

I am a Capricorn, and don't necessarily like talking about myself. But for the sake of this profile, here goes:- I love my wife, my sons, my dogs, my school and my haumana with every fiber of my being. - My Beautiful Bride is an Oncology RN at Kapiolani Medical center. I love her and love the fact that she helps these women who are going through so much. - We met at UH at a party . . . you want more info, you'll have to ask me one day. - Boy 1 lives in Missouri with his fiance, and is living his best life. Love him and am so proud of him. - Boy 2 (KS 2014), graduated from UO (go Ducks) and is currently working with a local marketing firm. Love him and so proud. - Boy 3 is about to graduate from Pearl City High School (go Chargers) and is attached to his mother. Love him & so proud. - I am a proud KS graduate of the class of 1989. I was a boarder from Big Island (I hate when people call it Hawai'i island) - I have done a few short films that played at HIFF. - I was on Wheel of Fortune in 1995 - I donated bone marrow to a young lady in 1996. Because of privacy laws, I have no idea how she's doing. - I have acted in local theater (Lisa Matsumoto's plays). - I love to sing (in my head I'm amazing, LOL). - I love everything Disney, Bacon and the Denver Broncos (even when they suck). - I love to cook, and I think I'm pretty good at it. I didn't build this body off of fruits and vegetables. - I have coached our school's paddling team for many years. It was hard to throw in the towel, but it became too much. - I am from Panaewa homestead in Hilo and very proud to be from Moku o Keawe. - I think I'm hilarious . . . - My love language is doing other things for other people. - I am grateful to still have my Mom & Dad and Bio-Dad still with me. They center my universe. - I think I am loyal, helpful, honest, friendly, fun, passionate, caring, a good dad and a great husband. - Nearly my entire life has been centered around fulfilling Pauahi's mission, and I could not be prouder to have been given the opportunity to do so.Wow, that was weird to list all of that.
