The navigator, Captain. The one who people look up to. An inspiration and role model for the future Polynesian players to come.

Pictured is the High School Most Valuable Player award. This celebrates the beautiful peoples from Tokelau. A tuluma and makau. A fishing box. A traditional vessel used to carry ones fishing gear.

Kama 'ia ke aloha a pa'a i loko. Be bound to love. (Wedding gift) Koa and mahogany.

Marketing and office kine work is something that this island boy isn't very good at. Just created a business profile that I need to share. Still trying to figure out how best to communicate that I am not a store but a service. I design and create works specific for my clients.

Delivered this carving to Tokunaga store. I'll share pictures once it's hung.

Progress report on this interesting paddle. The client wants a monstera leaf carved on to it. A challenge to pull off.
