Kauai IL Specialist – Holly Pickens-Torres

Holly is originally from California. She attended the University of Phoenix and Rancho Santiago Community College.  In the 90’s she obtained her Paralegal Certificate and in 2019 received a Medical Billing & Coding Certificate.  In 2020, she started Oceanic Medical Supply and More, a small business specializing in medical and natural disaster supplies.  During the previous years, she enjoyed joining the staff at two Centers for Independent Living both in Hawaii and California.

Holly absolutely loved providing services as an Independent Living Skills Counselor and an Assistive Device Technology Specialist for KCIL.  In addition, she launched a Fee for Service program and serviced several contracts.  Also, she later went on to embrace a position as an Empowerment Team Leader with special training in protection and advocacy on disability issues.  In her position, she provided a network for information exchange and facilitated opportunities for consumers to develop and use the skills and tools needed to address barriers and affect system change.

Additionally, in her home life, she takes great delight in being YayYay to her grandchildren and enjoys the hobby of song-writing.  Furthermore, she treasures making the time for daily bible reading.

Holly is both excited and thankful to join the AILH ohana.  She is passionate and dedicated about being of service to community members and spreading Aloha!
