Aloha. My name is Keaka Hemakanahiwahiwamaikalani Barrozo and my long hawaiian middle name translates to “ The precious gift from heaven.” I am a senior at Kamehameha Schools and I have been attending Kamehameha Schools since the 4th grade. My home nanakuli, which is where i was born and raised and still currently live today. I grew up playing baseball from the age of 8 and baseball has been something that has always been there for me teaching me life lessons like bouncing back from a mistake and thats what makes me love baseball so much. Growing up on the west side of the island in Nanakuli, i know it is more than likely that the sun is out and everything is hot and dry and that it is unlikely that its raining and the mountains are green. Even though it barely rains in Nanakuli, the name of my Ahupuaʻa rain is Kehauand the name of the wind is Kaiaulu.
