Gregory Ken Kita Yamaguchi is nineteen years old, and has just completed his first year at the University of California San Diego. Majoring in Mathematics and minoring in Math/Secondary Education, he hopes to teach at the high school level in the future. Aside from his studies, Greg is a member of the UCSD Nikkei Student Union and will be a part of next year’s exec board, taking on the position of Communications (on-campus club publicity). He has also been involved at the Venice Japanese Community Center and Buddhist Temple through Scouting (eagle scout), Dharma school teaching, and Jr. YBA.
Recently, he has been given the great opportunity to be an intern for the Japanese American National Museum through the Nikkei Community Internship program. Having been involved in the Japanese American community he grew up in, he hopes to become more connected with the JA culture and community on a larger scale. He is excited to be working with the Japanese American National Museum, meeting new influential individuals, and learning more about my culture.
