Outside the office, Dr. Fujisaki has a passion for adventure and the outdoors. From outrigger canoe paddling races across Hawaii to hiking some of the world’s most iconic destinations, he embraces every opportunity to explore. He and his brother trekked 18 days through the Himalayas to Mount Everest Base Camp, and more recently, he completed a 10-day hike through the Peruvian mountains to Machu Picchu with his son. Dr. Fujisaki believes there is a world full of adventure waiting to be experienced and encourages others to go out and see it for themselves.
