Allow me to introduce myself!

I am from Seattle, Washington, USA (West coast). I live in Japan in Kawaguchi, Saitama. It's near Tokyo, the capital of Japan and a city of approximately 20 million.

...here are some Japan links Take a look if you'd like to learn about Japan.

My hobbies include traveling, shopping, dining out, computers(hence my career), and taking things apart. We also own a couple budgies(parakeets). Here's pictures of them.

I graduated from Western Washington University in Bellingham Washington. Bellingham is a pretty nice place to live. In addition to Psychology major and Japanese minor, I also studied subjects such as Economics, Journalism, Sociology and natural sciences.

Even though I studied that stuff, I have a job here in Japan as a computer systems administrator. Here is the place where I was originally hired. This company has since been absorbed by EDS, a huge American company specializing in outsourcing information services. But that's not all - since then I have been hired by the client to whom I was being outsourced. It's a management consulting company, which actually is owned by EDS! The name of the company is A.T. Kearney - maybe you've heard of it?

 We got a new car and here's some pictures of it:  Honda CR-V - Front    Honda CR-V - Back    Honda CR-V - Inside
