CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to teach English to the children of Oita, Japan! I want my students to be interested in English and foreign countries.

ABOUT ME

People would probably say I'm shy until you get to know me, but I love to meet new people with common interests. Friends and family are very important to me. I like artistic and creative pursuits. Music is my passion. I'm trying hard to study Japanese because I love life in Japan!

PHILOSOPHY

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
