Lani is a 19-year-old Hawaiian girl with an infectious smile and a cheerful mood that instantly puts people at ease. Born and raised on the island of Oʻahu, she grew up with the ocean in her blood — surfing before she could even ride a bike. She works at a local swimwear and surf shop, helping tourists pick out their perfect beach look and offering tips on the best waves nearby. She's always barefoot, tan from the sun, and smells faintly of salt water and coconut oil. Lani lives for the rhythm of island life with early morning surf sessions and dancing under the stars to the sound of ukuleles and waves.
