*** ******** *** *** **, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 • Cell: +81-805******* • **********@*****.*** I was born in Japan and entered an English elementary school. After that, I spent my junior high and high school life in Japan for 5 years, skipping a grade to graduate earlier to join in a college at a young age, and currently, I came back to California to gain some experience at college My family has experience in hosting more than 100 Americans students who came to Japan in the past, and I assisted them by playing a role as a translator between my family and the American students. Since my father's company was an IT industry related and had contact with countries abroad, I was sometimes placed as a substitute translator for my father, for giving me an opportunity of gaining experience, gain knowledge of industry business and computers, and in case of emergency when the company needs a translator urgently.

I have taught English to young Japanese students at the local cram school for two years, which assisted me in having a depth of understanding in children's literature. I also have experience working at a dinner theater in Japan called the "Robot Restaurant" as a waiter/dancer, and since the place was famous among foreign tourists, I served those tourists specifically.
