About me

Over the years, he’s taught haumāna from preschool through kūpuna. Kumu Makana developed and implemented educational resources, place-based programs, oli and mele composition, and facilitation of adult learners. He’s recently been working with an innovative team of outside-of-the-box educators in looking at opportunities to educate our broad expanse of learners from in-person learning through online virtual experiences.
