My Ohana (family)

I was born in Oregon and raised in Waimea on the Big Isle. (Hawaii) Growing up my Grandfather was in many music groups, and also taught choir. He being 90 years of age still plays music and sings. Music is his life, music is my life.

My Grandfather and Grandmother were both born and raised in Hawaii on Oahu. Grandmother’s family is from Kauai in Hawaii. She is the Matriarch of the Trask clan. Grandfather’s family is from Medeiros Island in Portugal.

My father was born in Hawaii and my mother was born in the state of Oregon

I learned how to make the Ukulele from a lot of trial and error, Books, and instructions from my friends Noa Bonk (center) and father John Kitakis (right) , at Ko’olau Ukulele and Guitar Co. (I recommend their ukuleles to everyone)

I have 2 performers that play my Ukulele’s.

One is my Uncle and Friend the legend Eddie Bush who plays an incredible style of Ukulele.

The other is my friend Cody Pueo Pata who has a killer falsetto voice and has won Frank B. Shaners 2000 falsetto contest.
