I am a Hawaii-based freelance writer who writes about the Islands and their business, people, culture, and as a travel destination. My strong interest in Hawaii includes a master’s degree, focused on the cultural anthropology of Hawaii and Pacific Islands. I live in an old house on Hawaii Island on land where my family has been for more than 110 years.
Please let me know if I can help you with content such as articles, blog posts, reports, case studies, ebooks, or white papers.
