He credits his time on the JET Programme to help his career. For three years, he worked in New York City for two Japanese media outlets, NHK, and the Tokyo Shimbun. Before that, he was a freelancer for a wide array of international outlets around the world.\u00a0He recently wrote an article for the Japan Times surrounding some rumors he heard in Nara that a plane had crashed into the holiest mountain of the Kumano Kodo during WWII and decided to conduct some research\u00a0into this as a journalist. It sort of puts a highlight on the\u00a0bond between the US and Japan and on JETs and their placements.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in reading the full piece?
