Hi! My name is Emily Kuinitasi Kennach. I have more than 20 cats and I love all of them. I've been playing the piano for more than 13 years. I'm also learning a third language and I plan to learn more in the future. I'm a first-generation college student from a single-parent household. I grew up on a tiny island in the South Pacific ocean. In order to support my education and our little family, my mom was the first and only female taxi driver on our island for years. She is my role model and a strong and independent woman. I love my island, people, and culture. I want to be successful so I can help my family, my people, and especially my mom.
