In this hour-long documentary film a young multi-racial Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) woman, filmmaker Christen Hepuakoa Marquez, sets out to discover the meaning of her incredibly lengthy Hawaiian name from her estranged mother whose diagnosis as schizophrenic in the 80′s caused their family separation. Christen discovers not only herself within the name, but gains a whole new perspective on the idea of sanity and how cultural differences can sometimes muddle its definition.See More

Melody Ross' Life

LONG BEACH - How do you measure a life well lived and well loved?



In the case of Melody Ross, the effervescent 16-year-old bystander killed after Friday night's Wilson High football game by a still unidentified gunman, we're still learning.



Maybe her life can be measured in the massive outpourings of grief and… Continue

Hi ryanthelion, looks like you have a lot of experience with teaching. Do you work with any non-profit agencies who hire consultants to come in and do trainings? I'm really good at teaching Helping and Listening skills and I know how to train people to use Motivational Interviewing. There are many agencies who are moving toward this method so I was thinking I could help in that area. I'm talking to a few mental health/substance abuse agencies in town about coming in and doing a From Sabotage to Success workshop, that's the name of the book I wrote. The materials have helped a lot of students to move past self-sabotage so they could accomplish goals like finishing college, getting a new job, starting a business and leaving an abusive relationship. Keep me in mind if you hear of a group who needs something like this. All the best with your work.

Hi Ryan, I got a chance to check out your links. Looks like really good stuff. I see you're an educator too. What do you teach and where? I'm looking for a summer gig...budget cuts took out my summer employment. I'd like to do trainings in the community. Let me know if you know of anything. I was the one in roller skates on Saturday..the only one in all pink with a flower in my hair. So if that sounds familiar, you saw me. Come say hi next time.
