About Kalei
Born and raised in Kahalu’u, Hawai’i I have always wanted to be the best version of myself. I was a young athlete, starting at the age of 3, with dreams to play my sport at the highest level, beyond what was here on the Island. With hard work and dedication, I fulfilled that dream and was fortunate to become a full ride student-athlete playing Division 1 volleyball at the University of Arizona. I graduated in the summer of 2016. My love to compete and progress in my sport grew along with my aspiration to search for my true purpose in this life.
Shortly after my collegiate career came to end, I was blessed with the opportunity to play professional volleyball overseas. As I traveled all over the world for volleyball, I learned to adapt and immerse myself in different cultures, languages, and people. During the time I spent away from my ‘Ohana in the Islands, I was able to see my life from a different perspective and since then I haven’t turned back. I believe that every day I get to wake up and live it is an opportunity for me to be better than I was the day before. Not just with fitness and health but in all aspects of my life.
My passion for health and wellness has grown enormously from being a professional athlete and being a concerned daughter and granddaughter. While I was miles away competing overseas, all I could do was hope and pray that my family back home in Hawai’i were making wise decisions for their own health for them to be around for my own keiki (children) to grow up with the love I had. This is the ultimate reason why I created Kaleihulu Health. My goal is to reach as far out to as many people that I can and to help guide and encourage you to choose yourself and health.
