| Kiki grew up in San Diego and
graduated from Sweetwater High School. She was captain of
the volleyball team, varsity cheerleader, ASB, School Standout
(most school spirit), and crowned the Homecoming Queen. As
a young adult, Kiki has always been active in the San Diego
community. Today, she is a leader and a familiar face and
name to Pacific Islanders throughout California and continues to
volunteer her time in making a difference for the Samoan
Community and the area at large. Since the beginning of the Samoan Community Council of San Diego organization in 1995, Kiki has had an active role. The SCCSD was created to preserve, uphold, and promote the cultural heritage of Samoans; as well as to serve, strengthen, and unite the community through education, civic involvement, and strong committed leadership. Kiki has been the choreographer and teacher for the SCCSD dancers for 6 of the 11 years. Her focus is to fulfill the council's mission statement to its fullest.
