She was less than enchanted with the technology space (at the time), and was invited to participate in the JET Program. After two years living and working in Japan as an assistant language teacher, she moved to NYC and began working for Itochu International Inc., at a small division of the multinational conglomerate called AdPackUSA. After five years of dedicated service, she acquired the business and now runs AdPackUSA as an independent entity.
