Thanks for visiting! Let's start out with a little background information about me. I am a husband to a wonderful wife and father to two amazing boys. I was born and raised in Japan, having moved to America when I was 10 years old. I spent most of my time in the great state of Oregon. That is where I received my bachelors in marketing at Portland State University. I then moved to Japan to be closer to my family and received a masters degree in information technology from Virginia Tech. Lastly, I am currently getting my PhD in information science and electrical engineering from Kyushu University. Please enjoy exploring my website.
