Aloha kakou,
I would like to introduce you to EMWP’s new Program & Data Assistant, Shannon Paapanen, who’s first day of work began yesterday, 4/9/2012. Shannon is Hawaiʻi raised with deep roots in Upcountry soil and an equally deep aloha `aina no Maui nei. After many years on the mainland, Shannon returned to Maui a few years ago and has finally “come home” to join the EMWP staff/crew in our mission to “protect East Maui’s rainforest and primary water source.” Shannon has over 2 decades of experience as an administrative assistant/office manager in a variety of settings; from legal to non-profit offices and comes to EMWP with the highest recommendations. Please join me in welcoming Shannon to the EMWP staff/crew and we all look forward to introducing her to you in person in the coming weeks/months ahead!-)
Me ke aloha a hui hou aku
