I've lived in Japan for about ten years all together. I've also had a wonderful 2 years in NYC, 3 years in Palo Alto and 5 years in Seattle, WA. So no surprise that I love to travel, see new sights and learn about different people.My interest in Japan comes from my parents who both immigrated from Japan. I was fortunate to learn the language by living in Japan as a child, and also as a working adult and as a parent with children enrolled in Japanese schools.My interest in jewelry making comes from my love of craftwork. I enjoy teaching and watching people discover their own creativity. I truly believe that every person has wonderful, creative potential.I've got 3 beautiful kids and family here in Boulder.
