Hello and welcome to episode 2 of the Social Media Marketing + Mind set podcast. 

Today I’m going to be talking about my journey from Corporate Marketing Officer to Social Media Specialist and Business Owner. 

After I graduated university in 2006, I spend a year teaching English in Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan. I studied Japanese throughout my school years and continued in University with a Minor in Japanese. The experience in Japan was nothing I could ever had imagined. It was a life changer for me, and it allowed me to come out of my shell and truly be me. 

Once I returned home from the one-year teaching, I knew I didn’t want to waste too much time getting myself into a career in marketing. I didn’t want to waste my degree and knew I just had to apply for whatever jobs came up. I was very fortunate to land my first marketing job as the National Marketing Coordinator for Oak Hotels & Resorts (now Minor International) 

I have been growing as a person and also my business with the support of my business mentor and working with my clients.
