Our People Are Here for Good!
“UMass Amherst is more than just a workplace to me; it's been an integral part of my life's journey. From completing both my undergraduate and graduate studies in computer science to transitioning into a career at the university, UMass has played a vital role after moving from Japan to the U.S. as an adult.
Without UMass, I wouldn't be the person I am today, and for that, I'm forever grateful. UMass is more than just a workplace; it's a part of my life.”
