Grace Takayama - Journey from bookkeeping legacy to California dreams
Manage episode 434074176 series 3592960
Grace Takayama was born to a Korean mother and a Japanese Father. Nearly all her friends and family had traditional roles installed in them, the husband worked and the wife took charge of the household. Most of the men in her family were Bookkeepers, which inspired her to do the same.
Right after graduating with a degree in Accounting she wasn’t sure what her next step should be and found work keeping books at different companies in South Korea.
Her parents constantly urged her to make the move to San Gabriel, where her father's side of the family were already long standing residents, eventually her paternal grandfather convinced her to make the move to San Gabriel.
San Gabriel was full of opportunities and cheery residences that warmed her heart and thus her decision to stay in the SGV has remained true.
