I'm in a small group of Native Hawaiians in commercial real estate, and we all dream of returning home one day to build a better Hawai'i. I started my career out of college as a Chinese Language Analyst in the US Air Force, and when my contract ended in 2014, there was a significant amount of Chinese investment in real estate development in the United States, and I was able to secure a job on a development capital markets team. Since then, I worked at Lendlease in development and acquisitions, and acquired an $830m P3 with the City and County of San Francisco, and entered into a JV with Google. I then moved to Washington DC, and worked for the Mayor's office project managing city land sales and development sites. I then began working as a consultant and cowboy developer before landing at Ditto, the largest coliving owner-operator-developer in the mid-Atlantic. I'm currently working as a development manager at a mixed-use West Coast developer covering West Coast markets.
