Supporting Hawaiʻi’s Future Through Strategic Land Use: A conversation with Jenn Ontai of DHLM

Outside the office, Jenn enjoys spending time with her family—especially around the dinner table.

“We make it a point to eat dinner together as often as possible,” she says. “It helps keep us connected and gives us time to share the highs and lows of our day.”

She’s also a self-described foodie who enjoys trying new restaurants, along with discovering new music—especially hip hop, R&B, and K-pop.

Whether working through complex real estate transactions or helping move key housing projects forward, Jenn’s work is part of a larger effort to shape how Oʻahu grows.

And while much of that work happens behind the scenes, its impact is anything but invisible—supporting the homes, communities, and opportunities that will serve residents for generations to come.
