Kaala: Runway Model To Hawaiian Farmer
As a young girl, Kaala Clark was the daughter of a single mom who had acquired 3 acres of farmland in Hawaii. They lived in a camper trailer with no running water and no mirrors. However, when Kaala started finding photos of her mom with celebrities around the world, she began asking questions.
Recruited to be a young model, Kaala had to wait until the age of 17 to leave their small patch of land to travel to global modeling cities. What a cultural shock. After her brushes with celebrities and modeling, she felt the call to return home to the land of Hawaii and become a farmer among her people. In this interview, she discusses how the modeling industry helped shape her grit for farming and how this Hawaiian girl is working smarter, not harder.
