Aloha, I’m Courtney, the founder of Henōhea.
I’m a proud Native Hawaiian from Lahaina, with my 'ohana’s roots running deep—over 10 generations strong. I’m also a wife and mom to three amazing boys. In addition to my Hawaiian heritage, I’m a proud Filipina granddaughter of a Sakada, one of the first Filipino workers who arrived in Hawaii in the early 1900s to work on the sugar plantations.

Henōhea was born out of heartbreak and hope. After years of infertility struggles, we were blessed with an unexpected miracle in the aftermath of the Lahaina fire when we learned we were expecting our son. As the fire took much of our history, I began sketching designs to preserve the memories and stories that were lost. Those sketches became the foundation of Henōhea.

Henōhea is more than just a brand—it’s a love letter to Lahaina, a symbol of resilience, and an invitation to join in the healing.
