Born and raised in Hawaiʻi, I’ve spent the last 15 years chasing boats, breezes, and starting lines with an eye firmly set offshore. I’m currently racing on a J/125 on the East Coast and recently completed the Newport–Bermuda Race, as well as a couple of deliveries back from the island. I also have delivery experience up and down the West Coast—from San Diego to Seattle—and I’m comfortable standing solid watches in all conditions. I hold a USCG Master’s license and a Safety at Sea Offshore certificate, and I bring steady seamanship, good energy, and a calm presence offshore. Sailing back to Hawaiʻi has been a lifelong dream, and the Pacific Cup is the perfect way to make it happen. I currently split my time between SFO and Connecticut. Racing primarily in Long Island Sound for the last 15 years, looking to make some connections in the Bay Area racing scene. Would possibly be open to a delivery position back from Hawai'i as well. My primary position on the J/125 is jib trimmer, grinder. Occassionaly get to drive, trim spinnaker, main and mast. Im also an excellent snack-tician.
