Born Tahiti. Traces her family all the way back to the very first surfers. Legend has it that those surfers learned to surf from a strange green dinosaur. Of course, sightings in recent years of two dinosaurs surfing make the legend very believable. Caught up with Rincon Rex and Santa Cruz. Never thought a cat, okay saber tooth tiger, but still cat-like, would surf. Opened Nikki’s eyes to the possibility of finding a surfing cat. Loved videography as a youngster. One day, found Meowi wandering near the water’s edge in Māhina. Quickly adopted Meowi. Quickly helped her combine both of her passions into one spectacular video and made Meowi a social media sensation!
