I’m Amanda!

I’m just a girl who fell in love and began building my ‘ohana on an island in the middle of the sea.

By day, I’m an 8th grade language arts teacher; by night (and most weekends), I’m a full-time mom navigating the beautiful chaos of family life. My son is twelve, my daughter is eight, and our monthly calendar is a whirlwind of practices, games, and everything in between. Balancing work and motherhood isn’t always easy—shifting from lesson plans to lunchboxes and back again—but I wouldn’t trade this life for anything

Thanks for being here!
