I am a 21-year-old singer-songwriter born and raised on Maui. My musical journey began around the age of 5 when my mother began to teach me piano and basic music theory as part of my homeschool curriculum. I studied the Suzuki method for a few years and then my interest faded away from music, until I walked in to 808UkeJams at 10 years old, where I met my first Kumu (teacher) and leader of the group. He reinstilled in me the joy of music, through Hawaiian music on the ukulele, which I still carry with me today. Hawaiian music, contemporary, island style, and my original compositions encompassing all of the above is what I enjoy playing on the ‘Ukulele and 12 & 6 string slack-key guitar, brought to a full sound via my live looping.
I love what I do, and I love how my music can influence people’s lives.
Aloha!
