New Face at the Japan-America Society


Olga Samborska Moroz has joined the Japan-America Society as our Membership and Program coordinator. Olga, who served as the assistant for this year's Japan Bowl, also will be the Society's office manager and the first point of contact for members.

Olga was born in Poland, raised in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and majored in Latin American studies at Connecticut College. A college class in Japanese piqued her interest in Japan, and after graduation Olga went to Japan as a JET volunteer, teaching English at a junior high school on Awaji island for three years.

Olga is fluent in Japanese, Spanish, and Polish.
