My name is Jake Smookler and I'm a full time medical security officer on Maui. I'm also a relief radio presenter/on air personality on island. I'm a big football fan and LGBT Ally.
I was on scene at the University of Hawaii's Maui Campus for the March On Washington Rally last month. Here is my best photo of the rally at the heart of over 10K people!
If you've ever been to Maui, the BEST thing you can ever see on the island while you're here. This photo was taken by me during a sunrise with some cloud cover.
The Lahaina/West Maui Coastline taken from Front Street on Maui. You can see the island of Lanai out in the distance. Fact: You can take a half hour boat ride to Lanai from Maui!
Taken from outside of my work site. A major system of unstable weather caused a big time lightning show on Maui. This happened on the 12th of January 2014. The lightning show lasted around 2 hours. Thunder came about 1 hour after I filmed this. This clip was featured on KGMB 9 News (CBS Hawaii) and KITV 4 Island Television News (ABC Hawaii) during their evening broadcasts.
This is Maui's ONLY alternative rock and fusion reggae rock band on island! They're known as The Throwdowns. Three local gifted wickedly talented Maui musicians teaming up with a Canadian singer = Rock Out Music! Erin Smith (Vocals/Guitars), Ola Shaw (Bass Guitar/Guitar), Ian Hollingsworth (Drums/Percussion), and Kimo Clark (Bass/Guitar) make up this Paramore-like band!
