HAPPY
NEW YEAR!
Looking
forward to new opportunities in 2007.
As
with any new year's resolution, we have the opportunity to affect positive
changes not only in ourselves, but the world around us.
I'm
interested in the resolutions of people from around the world and how
we all can work together to make this a better place to live, work and
play.
Send
me your resolutions, thoughts, ideas. I'll be putting together a resolutions
blog to post them. Cheers! :-)

Past,
present, future
Born
and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, I became interested in art and
music at an early age. Like many here, I was taken by surprise as one
day I woke up, and I was in the midst of the technological center of the
universe, Silicon Valley.
The
rise of technology in the early days were exciting times, having worked
with a variety of tech leaders including Intel, HP, National Semiconductor,
Osborne Computers, Solectron, Atari Games and IBM to name a few.
Deeply involved in the local Silicon Valley community I was a long time
board member of the Silicon Valley Charity Ball Foundation, a founding
member of the San Jose Taiko Group, and a founding board member of the
Japanese American Chamber of Commerce of Silicon Valley. In addition,
I was part of the official San Jose delegation to Tokyo on the American
Airlines inaugural flight from San Jose to Tokyo.
The
downturn in the economy and the tech sector in general has caused me to
stop and re-assess my goals, direction and activities. I'm deeply concerned
about the future health and well being of not only myself, but of the
community and the world in which we live. ("Healthy body, healthy
community, healthy planet").
I
look for others who share this concern and how together we can continue
to make this a better place to live for the future.
Drop
me a line. Cheers!
