Our Origin Story

After spending a decade building web technology companies, raising millions of dollars of venture capital and ultimately selling those companies, I moved back home to Hawai'i to give to my children the wonder of growing up here. I came home to give back to the larger community for what it provided me.

I know that many kids with big ideas and strong motivations can struggle to find peers or mentors to help them on their journey. I was lucky to have a couple great teachers who allowed me to create some of my own curriculum around computer programming, and a supportive family that told me I could achieve my greatest ambitions. A family that could also afford to buy me an expensive piece of hardware to let me begin that practice.

Nalukai Startup Camp is about trying to support youth specifically in the ways I experienced as the most challenging. A peer group of like minded friends. Expert mentors. Access to professional tools, and a voice constantly and confidently telling me "I believe in you. You can do big things."
