Being a paranormal investigator presented a few unexpected career opportunities for me around the time I created Kahuna Research Group, the Big Island of Hawaii's premier paranormal research team back in 2011. Since then I've been a full time entrepreneur and independent researcher.

I never imagined that becoming interested in Hawaii's myths & legends and starting a paranormal group would present the types of career opportunities it did, and I am happy to share those experiences in this blog post with the hopes that it may encourage other paranormal investigators around the world to expand their horizons and consider using their skills as investigators in the professional world.

As paranormal investigators we possess (no pun intended) certain valuable skill sets that may benefit us while on potential career paths, such as a historian, tour guide or writer to name a few.

If you've been investigating for long, you should be quite proficient at researching and collecting data, compiling notes, following deadlines and presenting your findings of any given case to the clients - all of these being critical components to being a writer.

Once you choose the subject matter that you want to write about the possibilities are as endless as your imagination. For me, I chose to write about topics that I am passionate about, such as ancient mysteries, pyramid energy, energy vortexes, Hawaiian myths & legends, and so on. I eventually would like to create a children's book with my son as the inspiration, a cook book (mmmm, food!), and a coloring book for kids and adults both, because why not?

Since 2012, I have authored or co-authored four paperback books and published a total of eight different titles for multiple authors over the years under the imprint of KRG Publishing - the book publishing division of my paranormal research organization. The experience gained from this endeavor is invaluable, and it doesn't end there...monthly book royalties are now one of my main sources of income, and the books I've written and published make great gifts for friends and family and anyone else interested in the subject matter. On top of that, I have become somewhat of an authority figure on many of the topics I've written about. It's neat being considered one of the leading experts on paranormal activity in Hawaii.

QUESTION: What do you like to write about?

​There are many ancient mysteries in human history, none capture the attention as much as long lost civilizations that have never been rediscovered. In a new, never seen before documentary, we will look in deserts, dense jungles and even underwater and prove that ancient cities are just waiting to be found. With the advance of new technology, it is entirely possible that archaeologists will one day make a history changing discovery that will simply defy comprehension, by unearthing a previously unknown civilization.

KEALAKEKUA, HAWAII - Years ago I went hiking down to the Captain Cook monument with friends after planning to do it for a few weeks, after I had heard it was kind of challenging. I wanted to gear up and be prepared for a fun adventure. Compass and camera in hand, we set out on a new adventure.

The hike down the un-maintained trail to monument took about about 1.5 hours and is considered a moderately difficult hike, with lots of large ankle-twisting rocks on the trail, elevation changes and lack of nearby shade & resources. Imagine living out here in the ancient days and relying on underground water aquifers, having to catch your own food, and surviving against not only the elements but also invading bands of warriors. Pretty awesome stuff!

After enjoying the fruits of a few wild fruit trees, we arrived at our destination. I could easily understand why this area was at one time heavily inhabited and there existed a village nearby. We saw a school of Yellow Tang swimming around Cook's death marker, which was under about two inches of water at the time. In case you didn't realize, Captain James Cook was killed on this day, February 14, 1779, in Kealakekua Bay on the west coast of the Big Island. The story involves many details that I won't get in to here, but basically he had taken advantage of their kindness, and karma came back to get him. That's how it works especially on the Big Island, with all the vortex energy. Kealakekua translates to "pathway of the gods," and for Captain Cook, this was an untimely realization. 

Nowadays, all you encounter when you're down there are loads of tourists and historical dinner cruises trying to get close enough to snap a photo of the monument. #captaincookmonument

Join me on a Hawaii Vortex Adventure on any Monday between March 04 - June 24, 2019 and learn about the vortex energy of Kealakekua Bay (golden triangle) and around the Big Island on a multi-day experience into Hawaii's earth energies, esoteric history, connection with nature & animals and the cosmos, and MORE!

Recalling my possible Bigfoot encounter which happened in 2011 while I was hiking to the Tamanowas Sanctuary Rock in Chimacum, Washington with my then partner Grace and her two teenage sons. We all heard and experienced the same event, which was quite frightening. This is the first time I have ever come forward about this, and this took place before I became a paranormal investigator and researcher.

I will never forget that day...

​Special guest appearance by my friend and renowned Bigfoot researcher Ron Morehead, author of "The Quantum Bigfoot" and "Voices in the Wilderness" and producer of the "Sierra Sounds" (actual Bigfoot language) who gives his take on my personal encounter.

Check out Ron's website http://RonMorehead.com and read about his latest Bigfoot research. See him around the country at various conferences and conventions, too. He's a very active figure in cryptozoology. Thanks for your time and company, Ron!
