This picture was taken in front of the freshwater pūnāwai at my favorite loʻi called, Kuhiawaho. Turning the "Paige" on this chapter at UH Hilo!

My first time at Koholālele in Hāmākua on Hawaiʻi island. I went with Kīpuka on their Mālama Kaiāulu huakaʻi. Shakas and smiles at Koholālele!

First off I would like to say mahalo nui to all of my professors and mentors at UH Hilo. Your guy’s ʻike and guidance has not only helped me grow as a student, but has also inspired me to be a better leader within my community.

Second, I would like to say mahalo nui to all my amazing hoaaloha and my kāne for all your guys aloha and good vibes! My journey in Hilo would not have been the same without you guys. I will forever cherish the fun times and laughs we shared together. :)

Last but not least I would like to send a huge mahalo nui to my ʻohana, my dad, my mom and my brothers, Tyler and Bryson. I love and appreciate each of you guys for always supporting my journey and for being there when I need guidance or for someone to laugh at my puns (or at least roll their eyes in amusement LOL). I love you guys so much and I hope I made you guys proud.

Mahalo mahalo mahalo!

Share the Aloha!
