Cory is a child of Kailua. Born in Hilo, his family moved to Oahu
and ultimately Kailua when he was six. Upon graduation from Kamehameha,
he journeyed to California for college. He spent a total of ten
years on the mainland, California- North Carolina- Connecticut,
before returning home.
He has seen the transition from sleepy, rural community to thriving,
bustling, mini-metropolis. Despite this primal stirring, Cory holds
fast to the belief that the essence of “his” Kailua
still exists and is determined to be a contributor to the renaissance
of it. His most recent foray is the collaboration with his wife
Jennifer in the creation of Honu You Hawaiian Spa.
Active in athletics his entire life (most recently as a member of
Lanikai Canoe Club as a paddler and coach), Cory brings the same
enthusiasm and energy to the Honu You Hawaiian Spa experience. Whether
easing a body of tensions using traditional Hawaiian massage techniques
(Lomilomi) or assisting visitors and clients with questions about
products and treatments, Cory loves what he is doing and prays that
it is mutual.
