About Me

Experience Summary

I earned a M.A. in Japanese language and literature from the University of Colorado at Boulder. Prior to that I was hotel concierge in Hawaii responsible for helping Japanese guests and hotel staff communicate. I worked for Nissin Travel in Columbus, Ohio as a travel agent for Japanese clients. I received a B.A in Japanese language and linguistics from the Ohio State University in 1994. I was an exchange student in 1992 at Kansai Gaidai Foreign Language University. All of these experiences have helped me develop high level proficiency in Japanese language and a deep understanding of Japanese culture.

Teaching Style

I love to help people communicate. I believe that learning a foreign language is good for the brain, as it creates new neural pathways and helps us to learn that there is always more than one way to solve any problem.

My Hobbies

I enjoy studying the fine arts of Asia, especially lacquer arts. I also enjoy baking cakes and cookies with my daughter.

Other Comments

I also speak, read and write Korean, and lived in Seoul for 15 months.
