I am in my fourth year on the JET program and my first year as the Kitakyushu City Prefectural Advisor (PA).

My role as PA is to communicate the goals of the Kitakyushu City Board of Education to ALTs and assist in the preparation and execution of English activities both JET and non-JET related. Furthermore, I am available at anytime including off-work hours to any JET, particularly any newly arriving Kitakyushu City JETs who require any counseling and/or assistance of almost any nature. My personal goal as PA is to help make everyone’s stay in Japan as comfortable and rewarding as possible.

I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. I graduated from the University of Toronto under the East Asian Studies program. During my time in university I have come to like ancient Chinese philosophy, literature and archeology. I also studied Japanese language, among other things, which is one of the reasons why I initially joined the JET programme.

If you have any requests, concerns or questions feel free to contact me. To new and continuing JETs alike during this great opportunity in Japan have fun, stay healthy and be safe.
