Learn more about her in her own words.

I am humbled by how Life has exceeded my wildest dreams. As a young girl, I was born and raised on Hawai’i’s rural North Shore.

No one could have predicted that I would someday become National Geographic’s first Polynesian Explorer and female Fellow and advocate for cultural, environmental, and social justice by serving to reshape global perspectives.

My engagements include the United Nations, Oxford University, Harvard University, Stanford University, Google, YPO, and as a 3x TED Speaker.

With a doctorate in Cultural Anthropology, I specialize in ethno-navigation and am now applying my research to the exciting next chapter of my life.

As an anthropologist, I’ve witnessed massive cultural losses. Language represents the canary in culture’s coal mine. On average, the world loses a language every two weeks.

Together with leading technologists, we’re creating a platform that will protect, perpetuate, and advance humanity’s narrative at a global scale.

This project is akin to a long-distance voyage. No one makes a journey of this magnitude alone. To that end, we honor our ancestors who have gone before us and the generations yet to be. All are integral to this platform we call THE WAY FINDERS.

To my Hawaiian elders, Grandmaster Navigator, Pius “Mau” Piailug, Dr. Pualani Kanahele, Tohuna Faera Rose Pere, Q’eros Priest Don Humberto, Captain Don Walsh, Chumash Chief Robert Rivera, Unangan Elder Illarion Merculieff, Chi Kung Masters in the temple caves of China, and the nomadic Moken tribe of the Andaman Sea, all have been valuable teachers for whom I am grateful. And most of all to my husband and North Star, George Crowley.
