Mahalo to Chip and Marcela Bannowsky for sharing their daughter Sophia Keolani Bannowsky for our cover this month.
Dad, Chip, works as a concierge at Royal Kahana Resort and mom, Marcela, is a nurse in the Neurology department at Maui Medical Group.
Sophia is in kindergarten at Puu Kukui School, and really likes learning math and science.
She dances hula for Halau Kekuaokala au ala iliahi, and she also loves gymnastics and singing.
Dad shares, “From the beginning, Sophia has been a happy, healthy girl. She has a bright smile and a sharp wit! She loves making jokes and making others smile. She inspires both her mother and I to be better people and parents, and to work harder!”
