Kai was born in Tokyo, Japan, and spent the first 18 years of his life going back and forth between Hawaii and Japan, eventually ending up attending the University of Hawaii at Manoa on a tennis scholarship. After college, he moved back to Japan, where he taught high school English for two years before getting an opportunity to play professional tennis on the Pro Circuit, which he did for three years. He eventually met a local girl from Oahu, who he married in 2007. After two years living in Tokyo and working in the corporate environment, they moved to Hawaii Island to settle and raise their family. He has managed luxury vacation rentals since 2009, and has a passion for business and entrepreneurship which is eclipsed only by his love for his family. His world revolves around his wife Coralie, daughter Kalina, and son Keisen, who are his true joys in life. He also enjoys playing tennis, golf, ocean sports, and traveling. His idea for creating a brokerage where a portion of commissions are systematically donated to Big Island charities came from reading a book written by the founder of Toms Shoes, whose mission is to donate a pair of new shoes to those in need around the world, for every pair of shoes sold. One for One. This model has since been replicated in numerous successful businesses globally, ranging from glasses to socks and hats. Kai hopes to utilize real estate as a tool to create meaningful change for the people of Hawaii Island, where poverty levels are among the highest in the State.
