Hello, I am Toshihide Ikoma from Aichi, Japan.
I am studying Graphic and Web Design at John Abbott College in Montreal. I am thrilled to be able to experience an internship at Tenatch.
I studied International Relations at university and was
interested in branding countries through cultural diplomacy, but the career
path in cultural diplomacy was narrow and difficult to follow. When I was a
student, I studied abroad in the UK, backpacked to many different countries,
and realized that I could live anywhere with the internet. My first-hand
experience of the awesomeness of the internet led me to work for an IT company
in Tokyo.
After starting work, I was assigned to the new development
sales department, where I constantly made phone calls, which was not what I
expected from an IT job, and I wanted to quit. However, I realized that all I
could do was communicate, and I worked there for five and a half years without
quitting. ( I also got to experience various jobs, including management.) But
it wasn't what I wanted to do, so I decided to re-enter school.
My favourite thing is to listen to music like Jazz, Bossanova,
muji BGM, Classic, Putumayo world songs, etc., and design while drinking coffee
and eating chocolate. I also like events. I help out at the bazaar at the
Japanese Cultural Centre, and I'm planning to work part-time at a Japanese food
event called YATAI MTL in the future. Recently, I bought a switch and have been
playing games at home to prepare for the long summer holidays and long winter.
That's all, thank you for reading to the end.
