The Beginning of Great Things!
Well this is the first of many posts. Actually this is also my FIRST blog, so bear with me.
At this point in my life I am living in Tokyo, Japan and working on establishing an office for the Non-Profit Organization:
Invisible Children Inc.
Our biggest project thus far was to translate and add Japanese subtitles to the film. Now this past Friday the 13th I went down to Kwansei Gakuin University
Kwansei Gakuin University to speak with the audience after they watched our version of the film. UNHCR's representative, Kirill Konin, organized a 3 day film festival focused on Refugees.

Until next time, take care and Keep Smiling!!!
