Meet Lopaka Brigoli

My name is Lopaka Brigoli, and while it may be a name that’s hard to remember, I always say, “Just ask for ‘The Hawaiian Guy,’ and you’ll find me.” I was born and raised across Hawaii, California, and Georgia, but have now firmly set my roots in Odessa, Texas. Family is at the core of my life, and I deeply enjoy spending quality time with my keiki's (children). Whether it’s fishing, learning gun safety at the range, playing other active sports such as football, travel basketball (which I love coaching), martial arts, or golf, my time with my ohana (family) is invaluable. As you can tell, I am a proud Hawaiian who embodies the spirit of Aloha—staying positive and always smiling, even when times can be tough. I believe in treating others the way I want to be treated, just like I would my own ohana (family). Although the path was rough, I am grateful for the journey that has shaped who I am today. So, I began my path into adulthood by serving my country in the United States Air Force, enlisting fresh out of high school. Now, I'm a proud Air Force veteran. My professional journey thereafter has spanned over 18 years in the sales industry, 15 of those years as a finance manager and sales trainer. This experience has sharpened my skills and enriched my leadership abilities. Sales is simply the transfer of emotions. When done correctly WITH integrity, Exumes amongst the most rewarding feeling anyone could have. I never thought that I would've ever been in sales. But I'm so happy and honored to of been able to help so many amazing individuals over the years and I'm ready to continue to do so still in the future. I look forward to connecting and sharing more of my story with you all. Bye for now.
