KAYLEE SHIMIZU

Living on the beautiful island of Oahu, Kaylee was born and raised in Ewa Beach. The oldest of four, Kaylee's younger sisters look up to her for her musical and athletic abilities. Kaylee wrestled for her varsity team this past year and won several matches, including a tournament. Kaylee also has a softer side, and that's where she loves to incorporate music. She's performed for charity events, competitions and all over social media. Known for her whistle notes, one of Kaylee's Instagram videos of her singing a Mariah Carey song went viral. As a recent high school grad, Kaylee wants to pursue music full-time and share her talent with the world. Motivated by not only her parents and siblings, Kaylee had a lot of support from her great-grandfather before he passed away. She knows he's looking down on her and hopes to make him proud.
