Well, if I’ve learned one thing in this life it’s that all things must come to an end.

My journey ends here as I did not make it into the quarter finals. You got me through 5 rounds which is amazing and considering the amount of people in the competition that is no small feat.

I cannot thank each and every one of you enough for your dedication and support throughout this competition and am deeply humbled by your kindness and generosity.

I had a lot of fun revisiting and sharing my work with you and will continue to do so, only now at a more natural pace.

Now, I can get back to promoting my book and producing more art!

On that note, I will be holding the drawing for those who have bought my book to win the original artwork from the book in the beginning of July and will make a formal announcement on my socials.

Again, thank you all for your aloha and kokua, I am forever grateful.

Peace!



I've been working on a trilogy over the past 3 years and am proud to announce that volume 1 has just dropped!

This has been a passion project that has consumed much of my time as I attempt to tell a story unlike any you've ever read.

If you think you might be a fan of a fast paced, fantasy/supernatural thriller set in modern day Hawai'i driven by characters that are on a quest to discover their place in the world as chaos erupts around them from the choices they have made, this book might be for you!


In a quiet rural town on the Big Island, a close group of friends live a simple life - surfing, hunting, and spending long days at the beach. But everything changes when they stumble upon the dark scheme of a blind witch obsessed with finding an ancient artifact - one powerful enough to resurrect a forgotten sorcerer destined to become the King of all Hawaii. None of them could have imagined how this encounter would upend their lives. It will force them to question who they are, where they come from, and what their island truly means to them. But their discovery doesn't just awaken old legends — it draws the attention of the gods themselves, setting in motion a chain of events that could alter the fate of humanity forever.

So much for the simple life.
