Business Description

I obtained a Bachelor's degree in International Relations with a concentration in Japanese Studies from DePaul University in Chicago.

During my final year of college I lived in Chiba, Japan where I worked part-time at Tomioka Hachiman Shinto Shrine while attending Kanda University of International Studies. After I completed my undergraduate studies, I spent one year living in Tokyo, Japan attending Kai Japanese Language School in Shin-Okubo, where I advanced my language skills and studied translation theory with a private tutor.

My fascination with Japan goes beyond language-learning. I have spent significant time studying Japanese Film and Japanese Religion. I have a deep interest in Japanese architecture, cuisine, and music as well. I tend to incorporate these and other elements of Japanese culture into my students' lessons.
