Originally from Hawaii, Sean relocated to Portland for college. One of his favorite aspects about his move to the Pacific Northwest is experiencing all four seasons, especially the cherry blossoms in spring and the changing leaves in fall. Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, working out, and snowboarding. 

Where is your hometown/where did you grow up?

I grew up in Aiea, Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. It’s centrally located and equidistant to all the best beaches! It’s close to Pearl Harbor, so I grew up watching Navy jets and helicopters fly overhead.
