It’s been a hectic semester, but it’s a nice kind of hectic. I joined the faculty of UH-Hilo as an Assistant Professor of Hawaiian Studies. The change happened as our family celebrated the 10th anniversary of our move to Hilo, and the beginning of my career supporting our Hawaiian language programs.
I’m teaching HAW101 (Elementary Hawaiian Language) this semester, and will be teaching a class in Polynesian Music in the spring, in addition to all of my ongoing technology duties.
