CURRENT MISSION

Try to bring a little Japan back with me to America

ABOUT ME

10 years working in sales, then a year and change teaching English in Japan. I've just moved back to the U.S. but I'm feeling some reverse culture shock. Once you get out of your comfort zone, you never want to go back. ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others the way you would like to be treated.
