Born and raised in the plantation town of Kilauea, Kauai my fondest memories are going to the beach, riding my bike through town and hanging out with friends.

I studied ballet and jazz dance along with piano as a child.

I am a proud graduate of the public school system, first at Kilauea Elementary and then Kapaa High & Intermediate on Kauai's east shore.

After graduating from high school I moved to Oahu to attend Hawaii Pacific University. Early on I set my sights on becoming an attorney and originally majored in Political Science. I later opted to pursue a degree in Communication with a concentration in Speech.

I was honored to capture the crown of Miss Hawaii 2004 and was selected as Hawaii's representative to the Miss America Pageant in Atlantic City, Sept 2004. It was my privilege to represent the Aloha State and be recognized with the President's Service Award and the Charles & Theresa Brown Scholarship.

After earning my BA degree from Hawaii Pacific University I was hired as a general assignment reporter at KHON2 News, 2 years later I was honored to be named the  Wake Up 2day morning show co-anchor. A few years later I went back to school and received my master's degree from HPU in communication.

My husband, Daniel Heu, and I were married in 2009 and live in Honolulu. During my spare time you will see that I love to travel, enjoy the great outdoors and dine-out.

My philosophy about life is to work hard and enjoy all life has to offer. Think positive and know that the positivity you bring forth is contagious. My friends are my family and they mean the world to me...I hope that we all can live each day with passion, grace, understanding and love for each other.

Working in the news industry greatly enhanced my life. I love being a voice for the community and sharing stories with people. It is my honor to be able to share and disseminate information with others, to keep them up-to-date on their surroundings and happenings in their lives, home and state.  

I love truly wonderful, inspired, honest and thoughtful people who care about others. Visit my blog for my travels, good eats and happenings.
