I ka nānā no a ʻike.

By observing, one learns.

Welina mai to a critical, Indigenous, wahine ʻŌiwi space to speak back to the "Ivory Tower" of academia through humanizing reflections on my ongoing educational and career journey.

I use this blog to document personal updates, book reviews, and reflexive writing. Mahalo for taking the time to engage with me.

Aloha 'Āina, Ea, and Hoʻoulu Lāhui

This past week, I spent some much-needed time engaged in ʻāina, cultivating new friendships, and nurturing old ones. Last Saturday, I went out to a loʻi and got to talk story with college students and recent graduates about their relationship with ʻāina, and I'm always amazed and inspired by the depth of ʻike our youth have when it comes to Aloha ʻĀina work.
