AboutMe-2022-Embroidery.jpeg

I first started creating with embroidery. Thread and needle, slow and steady. Then, I tried my hand at crochet… and I was hooked (pun intended).

 

Fiber arts and lei making were always close to home for me. My mother deeply influenced my love for this work, and through her, I learned that creating with your hands is more than technique — it’s care, patience, and intention woven together.

 

After my father's passing, I began sharing my work publicly to honor him and make my mother, a longtime lei maker, proud. What began as something personal became something I felt called to offer. The turning point was gifting my pieces to others. Their encouragement and the meaning they felt receiving my handmade creations gave me the courage to move forward.

 

Gifting a lei carries weight. As both giver and recipient of lei over the years, I understand how sacred that exchange can be. It is gratitude. It is appreciation. It is love made visible.

 

Craftsmanship, for me, is deeply personal. In my work, the thought behind every color choice and the care in the execution are put together in a final look that I can stand behind with pride. I do my best to honor the culture and traditions I was blessed to grow up in and to contribute to my community in a positive way.

 

I create pieces to become part of your milestones — something to wear for the occasion and to treasure long after the moment has passed. My hope is that each lei carries intention and heart, and that when you wear it, you feel gratitude, appreciation, and connection.

 

This brand exists to be a small but meaningful part of memories that last a lifetime.

 

I’m honored to create for your milestones. Thank you for being here. 🤍
