Laualoha is from the Windward side of the island of Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi. She is a mother, writer, peacemaker and cultural practitioner, and holds a Masterʻs degree in Public Health.

She also has strong interests in music, logic, ethnobotany of all kinds, nutrition, indigenous farming, art, folktales, videography, conflict resolution, and peace.
