Q: Describe your profession currently, or most recently.
A. Buyer at Daikin Applied, freelance interpretation and translation
Q: Name the region and the city/town from which you come from in your native country.
A. Toyko, Japan
Q: What led to your move to the U.S. and how long have you been here?
A. Growing up, I attended international schools in Tokyo, so attending college overseas was the natural progression after graduation. The college I was accepted into (Macalester) happened to be in St. Paul, MN. I did not know ANYTHING about Minnesota when I arrived in 1999, but I am still here after 24 years.
