Alyssa Espinoza
Alyssa Espinoza moved to Hawaiʻi with her husband six months ago. Originally from Texas, Espinoza and her partner had spent a year and a half stationed in Nebraska before moving to the aloha state. She said that she has been enjoying the island, and its mellow weather.
“I like it because it doesn’t snow,” Espinoza said. “We get to go to the beach a lot, which is a lot of fun. … We can be outside, swimming, and my dog likes to be outside … ”
Being away from her extended family is a challenge to the 21-year old.
“ … My family is back home in Texas, and I recently just lost two of my grandfathers, over the past like, two months. That’s the hardest part, is not being able to be with my family.”
Alyssa is currently working towards a degree in nursing at KCC. In the future, she hopes to work in pediatric care.
In her free time, she goes on hikes and fishing with her husband. She also enjoys watching tutorial videos on how to do makeup.

Bianca QuibuyenBianca Quibuyen is a second-year student majoring in Accounting. Originally from Manila, Philippines she chose to go into accounting because of the stability and job security that a career in that field could offer. "Accounting is a really good major, especially here in the U.S. since everybody needs accountants, like all the companies that you go to need accountants," Quibuyen said. "So I think it's job security." Her plan once she finishes her second year at KCC is to transfer to UH West Oʻahu to complete her Bachelor's in Accounting. When Quibuyen is not at school studying she also works at First Hawaiian Bank. In her leisure time she enjoys reading books and takes up swimming as a hobby. She has experience swimming competitively but since she quit training competitively it has become an activity she enjoys doing in her spare time.
