About me

As a lifetime student-athlete, I understood the importance of education and athletics and took advantage of the opportunities to fund my higher education. I am a huge advocate for holistic development of students through an athletic model that teaches skills that cannot be learned in the classroom. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to Ke Aliʻi Pauahi's mission of this school through my passion of interscholastic sports. My goal is to empower, encourage, and motivate our haumāna to be ʻoiwi leaders! I was part of the 2019 American Samoa Women's Basketball Team that won a gold medal at the South Pacific Games, but now serve in the coaching capacity for ASBA. I am also a USA Basketball certified coach.B.S. Exercise & Sports Science (Brigham Young University, Hawaiʻi) / M.A. Educational Policy & Administration (Dakota Wesleyan University) / D.Ed.
