About
Hi, my name is Kristin Nagashima. For ten years I served as a CH47 helicopter mechanic for the US Army and a civilian submarine mechanic for the US Navy. For much of that time I lived in Hawai'i, where I experienced the aloha spirit. I try to carry it with me wherever I go.
I have a deep respect for those who serve and SBT is my way of giving back. Thank you for being a part of my journey, I hope to be part of yours.
Aloha, Kristin
