Inside Sales Coordinator I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. I believe every outcome, whether it be negative or positive, was the path God had planned for me.

My country, Tonga is the only monarchy in the South Pacific and one of the few countries in the world who maintains its royal family. Family unity is extremely important along with her culture. Sundays are completely devoted to worshipping. It is very special and inspiring how everyone comes together for the same purpose. All these things I believe are key components towards success and well being.

My family taught me that in order to be successful in life we need to hear the voice of our heart. My Dad always says: " If you want something better enough you have to put yourself and go get it". And I'll always remember my mother's words too: " To reach your goals, send your heart first, because your entire body will go right after it!". I also learned that life is not about doing all that you want, but to want all that you do. And that the sun comes out after every storm and if my eyes are filled with tears, I won't be able to see the rainbow.
