Iowa born--living in Hawaiʻi since 1987--36 years. I learned Hawaiian quilting in the old Hawaiian way from my Aunty Violet Hue in Hilo. I have been perfecting my art craft since 1998. With many honors for the quilts, I am proud to present works of Hawaiian culture in the beautiful realm of Hawaiian quilting. I aim to preserve and perpetuate the heritage passed down to me. Ka wā ma mua; ka wā ma hope. (The future is found in the past.)
