ðļðļðļAbout Sumikoðļðļðļ
ðļBorn and raised in Japan
ðļI am a Japanese born in Nara City, Nara Prefecture.
ðļI live in the suburbs of Milan, Italy.
ðļI speak Japanese, English and Italian.
ðļGraduated from the Department of English Literature, Faculty of Letters, Doshisha University, Japan
ðļQualified as a piano instructor
ðŧ Lived in the US for 5 years, lived in Italy for 15 years
ðļ Graduated from university
ðļ From childhood until graduation from high school, I was aiming to join the piano section of a music college, but
ðļ I liked English. So, when I was in my third year of high school, I changed my career path and entered the English Department of the Faculty of Letters at Doshisha University.
ðļWhen I was in college, I worked part-time as a cram school instructor and a private tutor. I also joined the broadcasting club for a while, and as part of my job hunting, I attended an announcer training school during my fourth year at university.
ðļAfter graduating from university, I worked as an employee at a partially listed company (Mitsubishi Group Leasing Company), and then
ðļDropped out of Irvine Valley College in California, USA.ðļI married my Italian husband, whom I met in America.
ðļAfter getting married in Italy, I moved to America and lived there for about 5 years, including my student days.
ðļI moved back to Italy when my daughter and son were in elementary school and have lived there since 2008. I studied Italian at a private language school for just six months before my kids were born. However, between English and Italian, I am better at English.
