Born and raised in Hawai‘i, I grew up surrounded by rich culture, natural beauty, and a deep appreciation for how spaces shape the way we feel. That connection to environment and emotion led me to architecture, and today, I’m passionate about creating spaces that are not only functional, but memorable and meaningful. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Design from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa School of Architecture, where I began building the creative and technical foundation for the work I do today. What drives me most as a designer is the ability to shape how people experience the built world and to create environments that connect, inspire, and leave a lasting impression.
