She has served as administrator and financial director for international technology companies. She is fully bilingual in both English and Japanese and has first hand knowledge of Japanese culture (she was born and raised in Japan). She was a Project Director for the 3 year Federal grant, the Japanese Language Integration Project (JLIP) at the Japanese Bilingual Bicultural Program West (JBBP West) until summer of 2004, in the San Francisco Unified School District. The JLIP was a federally funded program. Her team has successfully developed and deployed the original Japanese language software program "Adventures in Nihongo" for K to 5. The JLIP was invited to present their software at the National Association of Bilingual Education (NABE) 2003 conference. She was also the creator and director of the JBBP Choir and the After School English Tutoring program (for ELL Japanese students).

"I believe in technology, and I believe that if students have access to technology, they can learn the skills that will make life and learning easier for them."
