Jessie’s goal? To immerse herself in Japanese culture, learn how global markets operate, and build cross-cultural communication skills. Plus, she plans to bring those fresh social media strategies back home to help local small businesses grow and inspire fellow Vulcans to step out of their comfort zone! πŸ“ˆπŸŒΈ

✈️ Living abroad changes everything! 🌏✨

UH Hilo alum Ann Inouye credits her study abroad experience in Saitama and Okinawa, Japan, with transforming her life and career.

From living with a host family to building lifelong international friendships and embracing Japanese philosophies, her time abroad taught her resilience, independence, and deep cultural connection.

Today, as a clinical psychologist in Maryland, Ann still uses the empathy and open worldview she gained in Japan to guide her work every day.

Where would your dream study abroad experience take you? πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅πŸŒΈ
