“I grew up playing in bamboo forts built high above the tropical forest floor, swimming in lava tubes that turned the water black, and exploring munitions bunkers on Hickam Air Force Base. My Uncle taught me to surf at 8 years-old by standing me up with him on his long board mid-wave on the North Shore.
As a teenager, my friends and I roamed the shallow water mangroves of the Pearl Harbor canal getting footage of sharks, eels and sea urchins. At night when the tide was out and the moon was bright we would walk, run and fight on the seemingly limitless sand bar covered in a thin layer of ocean water just above our ankles.
These are the places from which I write. ”
