I love science, mathematics, and programming, so in college I studied biomedical engineering which uses all three. For fun I like to play my two favorite sports: soccer and tennis, and I also love studying and speaking Japanese with my wife. And if I had to choose a favorite food, I would choose mildly spicy beef curry.

I have a fraternal twin sister, an older sister, and a half sister. And because my half-sister no longer lived with my family, I experienced everyday life with my two sisters. When I was bored, I often had to play make-believe with my sisters using their Barbie dolls. At one point, my sisters even made me wear a dress! But thankfully, my father was there for me. I think most children will admire and take after their parents, so it comes as no surprise that I wanted to be like my father. My father was very active as a mechanic, and loved to collect and fix things. In my eyes, there was nothing he couldn’t do. As I grew older, my father took me to help him do chores, fix things, and cure boredom. It was during these times that he told me to remember “if a job is worth doing, it’s a job worth doing well.” In other words, if you do something, always try your best.Kenneth Emme Jr. さん(29 years old)
