My Greatest Supporters

My family has always been my greatest supporters. My parents, siblings, nina, and the rest of my family have been there to support me in everything I do no matter what. Thank you all for helping me get to where I am today!

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

I‘ve had countless memories during my time at SMC. The two years that I played for the SMC Rugby team was a challenging and awesome experience that I’ll never forget. Kicking back with my friends who have become like family, whether we were barbecuing, playing kickball (Team Shindaiwa FTW), stroll patrolling, I could go on. Having multiple nicknames throughout the years. Everything else, iykyk.

My Next Chapter

After graduating I am looking forward to going back home to be with my family again. I'm not sure what exactly I'll be doing, but I know that I want to be able to make contributions to the betterment of my island.

My family and friends! My family is the reason why I am able to pursue higher education and without them I would not be where I am today. And my friends have always encouraged and pushed me to do better, be better, and to believe in myself at all time. These individuals mean everything to me!

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

My favorite memories would have to be all the late night study sessions and being in the dorms freshman year!
