I am known as Hawaiian Girl in the running community; Happy Hawaiian Runner is my way of sharing my story. I am a survivor and I learned how to live. By sharing my story I hope to inspire individuals to live life in a positive light. I live in Los Angeles, California with my son. I live the life of an active, busy single mom; working two jobs, training, being a law student, plus my son’s school stuff and his own extra circular activities. My hope is that you are inspired to get out there and accomplish your goals. Its all about you, and you do it for nobody but yourself.

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.
