Born in Kobe and raised in Osaka, Japan, I immigrated to the United States in 2003.  To support my family in South Central, I worked nights as a sushi chef while attending Los Angeles City College. After transferring to UC Berkeley to major in Comparative Literature, I began to volunteer within the Alameda Courts and write freelance editorials emphasizing civil rights and social justice.  Fluent in Japanese, Spanish, and English, I tirelessly utilize my trilingual abilities to conduct relevant research pertaining to human rights and translate for those that find themselves in precarious legal situations.  In my free time, I enjoy playing the guitar and spending time with my two children.
