Art Umezu, Kaua‘i’s film commissioner, said Kapa‘a High School student Daphne Sanchez (still can’t get over that Homecoming gig at halftime) is doing extremely well.
Daphne is featured in a full page on the February/March issue of “Girls Life,” photographed by Kicka Witte of Miami who has relocated to Kaua‘i. This is Daphne’s second feature for GL — she was also featured in the December/January issue.
