may
think
that
my
path
to
this
point
has been
smooth. It was
by Japanese
not. I was born
in the
USA,
raised
parents
and blessed
with a solid
family foundation including
two
brothers.
My
father,
a
professor
with
a
Ph.D.
from
Harvard,
and
my
mother
always stressed
the importance
of hard work
and
education,
so I grew
up
with
a deep
respect for education
and
discipline. My personal experience
of
growing
up
in
Japan
and
the
USA,
with
exposure
to
people
from
around
the world has
profoundly
molded
me.
Receiving
an
education
in
two
leading
countries
with
two
very
different
educational systems
and
and cultures
has
allowed
me to
become bilingual,

defines
my identity.
However, life was
not always easy.
I felt
like I was
catching up
rather
than
feeling
confident
and comfortable
in my studies
or
peer
group.
My
dual
education
opened
up
windows
into
each
culture
as
well
as exposed
blind
spots. Because
of this
unusual
background,
I was bullied when
I first arrived
to Japan at age
8 and again at age 13. As the saying
goes,
“the
nail
that
sticks
out
gets
hammered.”
However,
this
was
a
type
of character
building and developed my “grit” for persevering through tough situations. It has also helped me gain
empathy and flexibility in my approach to people and situations.
As a teenager, I tried to assimilate and become American rather than to acculturate and pick the best of
both cultures. It was difficult to understand what it meant to be both Japanese and American. During my
youth, this confusion and lack of self-confidence in my own identity affected me. It was only as an adult that I
started to embrace and appreciate both countries and cultures and find my own unique identity. This personal
experience combined with my husband’s, as well as our experience in raising three children led to a research based discussion paper on “how to nurture our next generation of global citizens.” This work benefitted from
the input and support from academics and thought leaders including those from the Harvard Business School,
Harvard School of Education, Harvard College, Phillips Exeter Academy, Hackley School and my community in
Tokyo and the greater New York area.
My proprietary Global Citizens Roadmap is a framework to assist parents as they nurture their children for
the 21st century. Emphasis is placed on the importance of family as a foundation. I feel blessed to have the
support and guidance of my family, friends and mentors as I continue to research this field of global education
with emphasis on family, language acquisition, cultural sensitivity and character development. Most recently,
I have attended the Think Tank on Global Education and Future of Learning (FOL) Conference at the Harvard
School of Education, and have launched the Global Citizens Youth Summit in order to start formulating
the basis for a holistic
