Oversees a team of investment associates and provides crucial guidance on Ulupono's agricultural strategy. My financial knowledge helps Ulupono decide which investments are worthwhile to meet its mission of creating more local food for Hawaii's families. I cultivate relationships with farmers, ranchers and other growers in a community that is typically fragmented and widespread. My work goes beyond crunching numbers on a spreadsheet -- I personally visit local farms on all islands and meet with members of the agricultural community to see first-hand the challenges, opportunities and solutions each operation is facing.
