I believe she is Japanese American, but I'm not sure if she actually speaks japanese herself or not. Her company is actually an independant contractor that finds new hirees in other countries; as yet I haven't actually spoken with a representative from my company.
Just to give some more information, the company I'm going with is Peppy-Kids Club (
www.peppy-kids.com). The hiring company is I believe called Zaku International, but I could be wrong about that name.
