The people behind Plan Benefits Hawai‘i are licensed, independent, and rooted right here in the Islands — ready to help you and your ‘ohana with Medicare, retirement, and everything in between.
Independent, licensed, and local — each advisor brings their own background and languages so every family finds someone they connect with.
Kalei is a graduate of Saint Louis School and Lewis & Clark College who has helped Hawai‘i’s retirees understand and choose their Medicare coverage since 2005. He believes finding the right plan shouldn’t be confusing — he takes the time to understand your health, your doctors, and your budget, then finds a solution that truly fits. When he’s not helping clients, you’ll likely find him coaching his daughter’s softball and son’s baseball teams.
Lance Doiguchi is a Hawai‘i-based financial services veteran with more than 30 years in mortgage lending and insurance planning. A Licensed Insurance Agent, National Social Security Advisor (NSSA), and Certified Mortgage Planning Specialist (CMPS), he loves guiding seniors through Social Security decisions, building solid retirement plans, and planning ahead for long-term care. His drive is personal: years ago he watched a client lose her husband with no life insurance and no savings, left to cover the mortgage alone. That moment shapes how he works today — making sure families are properly protected, never forced to choose between grief and losing their home. His goal is simple: empower you to enjoy retirement on your terms while preserving the legacy you’ve worked hard to build.
Since 2018, Derek Kim has helped individuals and families across the community with their Medicare and life insurance needs. For Derek, taking care of people is about more than choosing a plan — it’s about listening, building trust, and treating every client like ‘ohana. His passion comes from helping people feel informed, supported, and confident when making important decisions about their health and their future. He takes pride in personal service, honest guidance, and being someone his clients can count on when they need a helping hand. Serving his community and building lifelong relationships is what makes this career so meaningful to him — and he considers it a privilege to be part of each client’s journey and help protect what matters most.
Since 2012, Stephanie Flores has helped individuals and families navigate Medicare and life insurance with confidence. She believes every client deserves honest advice, personalized service, and someone who truly listens to their needs. Her goal is to make insurance easy to understand, so you can make informed decisions and feel confident about your coverage. For Stephanie, building lasting relationships and being a trusted resource her clients can rely on is the most rewarding part of what she does.
Glenn Arakawa has been a licensed agent since 2013, with deep experience educating and advising people on life insurance, health care plans, Medicare, long- and short-term care, Social Security optimization, and guaranteed lifetime retirement income. For Glenn, this work is personal: as the adult child of a 91-year-old kupuna, he knows first-hand how access to the right benefits can be life-changing. He strives to be the kind of advisor he’d feel comfortable recommending to his own mother, sister, or any family member — someone who listens, explains clearly, and puts your family’s wellbeing first.
