Being able to talk to people who are older than you and ask for mentorship from a young age is a really good skill to learn, and I think that HPA was really instrumental in that.”

Boarding was the best part of my experience at HPA. The friendships I made at HPA and the connections. I’m from the Big Island, but I boarded because I was from Hilo, and it was too far to drive every day. My friends from Robertson’s, I visited them either during high school or right after. Even now, when I travel, I reach out to my old boarding friends — guys from Japan, Korea, and Germany — I’ve visited all of them.”
