About Me

Financial professional from the United States on backpacking trip through Japan. Love to hike, ski, run, and meet new people. I am an avid traveler, but it is my first time ever in Japan so I am trying hard to learn as much as I can about the culture, history, and people! I love learning about the unique stories that give the cities and villages around the world its character. I am a lifelong learner and a CFA Charterholder, so if you ever want to discuss finance, economics, or even politics I'd love to hear from you!

Well-versed In stocks and other financial markets. Always love talking about global markets and economics. So much to learn and gain by talking to other people about their home countries. I am very interested in learning new languages and especially improving my Japanese.

I’m an excellent bartender and cook, so I know my way around the kitchen. I could even buy some of the necessary materials for a nice meal if accommodation was provided. I try to keep up to date with world politics and economic events, so I hope to offer good conversation as well.
