Big Hair, Big Heart, Big Impact

You ask Uso Seumalo to talk about his journey. He smiles. There is a story. To start, he loves Maunaloa, Moloka'i — his home — a tiny, plantation village up in the hills and above the western coast near two big beaches. He talks about being the son of a farmer and how he worked the farm that produces coconut, cocoa, ulu, bananas, taro and kalo. He talks about how much he loves his native island, a paradise with lush, green fields, so far away.
