My virtual law firm specializes in small business law, with a focus on creativity, sustainability, and giving back to the community.

A graduate of Kamehameha Schools and the University of San Diego, I earned my law degree magna cum laude from the William S. Richardson School of Law, with certificates in Native Hawaiian and Environmental Law, where I was an editor on the UH Law Review and member of the Environmental Law Moot Court.

I worked for several non-profit and government agencies focused on protecting our precious natural & cultural resources, and gained experience clerking in the state and federal courts. I then worked at Ka Huli Ao Center for Excellence in Native Hawaiian Law for several years, where I taught classes and conducted community legal trainings on land and water rights. I'm currently pursuing a PhD in Indigenous Politics, am part of the Pōʻai ke Aloha ʻĀina Research Lab committed to elevating aloha ʻāina and circular economy principles, and serve on the State Environmental Advisory Council. 

In 2020, I started my own product-based business which involved a bunch of collaboration with artists and other brands and non-profits. Through participating in accelerators like Mana Up Hawaiʻi, the Pākōlea program, and the Female Founder Collective (and doing pop-up markets of course), I met so many brilliant entrepreneurs who wanted more affordable and approachable legal services, and was inspired to create Kōnane Law.
