Candidate for President
Why are you running for office?
I am running because serving the membership is still my kuleana (responsibility). As a past president of HGEA, we faced and overcame many challenges during the unprecedented times of the COVID-19 pandemic. I want to continue the fight and representation.
What are your goals?
The membership and HGEA has emerged from the pandemic stronger and more unified. We were able to restart most programs and services. I want to fight to protect and advance the rights and benefits that our members have earned and deserve.
