Saki Kudo (Class of 2024) grew up in a small town in northern Japan, with a population of 5,000. Since then, her world has gotten much bigger, living in Tokyo, Philadelphia, Michigan, Alabama, and now North Carolina. In this episode, Saki shares about expanding her horizons and connecting with others - picking up ballroom dancing, working for Toyota in the U.S. Deep South, and becoming a Philadelphia Eagles fan. Saki shows us that if a young Japanese woman can connect with carmakers in Alabama, we have much more in common than we think.
