Pashyn Santos is an actress, comedian, writer, and Internet personality. She was born and raised in Hawaii.

According to Netflix’s Tudum, Pashyn says she’s known as “Miss Aloha” because she gives back to her community and makes people laugh.

Pashyn also loves rock climbing and her strategy is to be a chameleon who can adapt to every situation thrown at her.

Talking about her upbringing, Pashyn says she knew at a young age that she wanted to be an entertainer. And she followed through: she is now one of the top female comedy video creators in Hawaii, with an online presence across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook.

Even though she is always spreading smiles, Pashyn has also had her fair share of obstacles striving to be her authentic self.

"Humankind's form of acceptance is ever-changing. When you're looking at acceptance, look inside first," Pashyn shared the advice on Hawai’i Cares 988, "Be happy with who you are and the pursuit that you're on to your potential."
