Hi, I'm Marisa! I was born and raised in Japan until the age of 13, after which I moved to Oregon. In Japan, I attended an international school, where I grew up speaking both languages.

I received my Bachelor's degree in art history, graduating with a 3.93 GPA. I love academia and research so I continued in the same field, earning a Master's degree (3.90 GPA).
