Our Board

Skye Morrison

I love cats, books, music, and frolicking in my garden. 

I’m a licensed medical social worker, particularly involved in hospice work and with medical-aid-in-dying.

I’m also certified as a death midwife and am very involved in engaging the community in death education.  

And I'm certified as a sage-ing leader, which is the practice of aging with purpose, mindfulness, and gratitude.

One of my great interests now is in helping people navigate life’s big transitions.  

To find a path ahead and a sense of purpose in life again following profound life altering changes.

Mālama Village has been a dream of mine for a long time and I’m so excited to help bring this village model to Oahu.

I believe in the power of community, using our gifts as elders to help others, and aging at home with independence, friendship and recognition of the many gifts that life brings at all ages.
