I am a journalism student at the University of Hawaii at Mānoa. As a descendent of the payómkawichim tribe of Southern California, I found a passion for indigenous representation through media. My current work explores photography and news writing for various issues surrounding indigenous rights, lands and people. In my time as a student, I have published several articles for different outlets on some topics ranging from value of place names, deep sea mining, to Native Hawaiian art. Eventually, my goal is to travel the world and meet people through the means of journalism while also prioritizing indigenous people.
