Introducing: Natalie Chan
Natalie Chan attended the University of Toronto, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree as a Specialist in East Asian Studies. After graduation, she followed her passion to Japan on the Japan Exchange and Teaching Programme, where she taught and lived in Ishikawa Prefecture for two years.
Since returning to Toronto, she has been actively involved in the Japanese community acting as a local ambassador to promote Japanese culture. In her first job after returning from Japan, she brought her expertise and experience to The Japan Foundation, Toronto, where she worked to strengthen cultural exchange between Japan and Canada. Now, Natalie continues to connect Japan and Canada as the Account Manager for the Japan Airlines Toronto office. In her spare time, she loves to explore and travel to new places. She may also know a place or two for good eats in Toronto.
