Aloha! My name is Michael Leslie — but around Hawaii, everyone knows me as Aala. Born and raised on Oahu, I've spent the last 15 years working in Hawaii's financial services and insurance industry, helping local families and homeowners protect what matters most.

I started my career in 2012 as an Auto Loan Officer at Bank of Hawaii, then spent eight years as a Lead Sales Representative at Liberty Mutual, where I built a deep understanding of property and casualty insurance — including the unique risks Hawaii homeowners face, from hurricanes to single-wall construction homes. In 2022, I opened Aala Leslie LLC, where I now work as an independent owner and agent, with appointments through the Mutual Underwriters brokerage.

Whether you need a hurricane insurance quote to satisfy your mortgage lender or simply have questions about protecting your home, I'd love the opportunity to kōkua — to help. Please feel free to reach out anytime.

Mahalo nui,
Aala
