I have been awarded the Western Arts Alliance - Advancing Indigenous Performance Program Fellowship. This helps

artists with indigenous heritage to further their careers for touring and teaching throughout the states. I will post conference updates.

      We had 2 wonderful shows at the Blue Note! Mahalo to all the fans for your support! The live performance video will be coming soon.

     I'm thrilled and getting ready to record a contemporary Jazz album with Henry Allen, a great Hawaiian Jazz guitar and steel guitarist who has recorded and performed with Elvis Presley, Martin Denny, George Benson, and many others.

     I am very excited to present my Hawaiian Guitar School in the next few months! I have been working on this online school dedicated to the many styles of Hawaiian guitar for 2 years. I share with my students lessons and topics learned from my live and studio giging experience. Coming in the summer of 2018.

I'm so excited to have won a Na Hoku Hanohano Award on May 19, 2018 for Island Album Of The Year for my current album "So The Story Goes". It is such an honor to have been nominated for Most Promising Artist and Island Music Album, then winning the latter. This a prestigious music award recognized through out the pacific and Asian regions. Mahalo to my friends, fans, and HARA for the support!

Many thanks to Musicians Institute in Los Angeles for doing a success story on me. This place changed my life and is a great inspiration. Check it out here.
