For Kimi Werner, spearfishing has always been more than just a hobby—it’s a way of life. Growing up in an isolated region of Maui, her father turned to the ocean for their family’s primary source of sustenance. Using the skills she learned as a child, Kimi later became a national spearfishing champion. She’s also a skilled cook and artist, as well as an advocate for sustainable eating and environmental conservation. Most days, you can find her freediving for fish near her home in Oahu in order to feed her husband and young son, Buddy.
