Kristine Wada
"Through the generosity of Dr. Scott Oishi, I will pursue my Master's degree in English literature at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. Books have always played an important role in my life, and I look forward to sharing my love of the written word with others through education and through one day publishing a novel of my own."
