He returned home and completed his internship and post-doctoral fellowship with I Ola Lāhui, a local non-profit focusing on mental health in underserved, rural, and Native Hawaiian communities. He focuses on mental health for older adults, their families, and with elder-care organizations including geriatricians, senior homes, adult day-care centers, and local agencies on ageing. He is passionate about the intersections of psychology, social justice, and culture. In his free time he enjoys being with his family and spending time in the mountains and the ocean.
