Scholarship:- Kamehameha Schools Class of 1970 Scholarship
- University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo
Aloha kākou, thank you donors of this scholarship for choosing me as your recipient. I am planning to put this scholarship towards my books for the school year. I am looking forward to pursuing my degree in nursing. I also plan to speak fluently in ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi by the time I graduate. I can accomplish this by taking Hawaiian language courses. After four years of college as an undergrad, I hope to pursue a master’s degree to become a Family Nurse Practitioner. I am striving to be able to work at a Native Hawaiian health clinic to specialize in working with Native Hawaiian families and kūpuna.
