BACKGROUND
Junko grew up in a traditional Japanese family where her father was a rainmaker and her mother was a homemaker. Her father managed the entire household's financials and her mother didn’t know anything about money except the allowance she received from husband monthly. Her mother’s lack of financial independence made Junko determined to be a completely independent woman. After Junko moved to the US, she realized that many American women, those who are older, tend to give financial responsibilities to their spouses. She decided to become a wealth manager in order to help women become aware of the importance of financial independence and to gain the confidence in doing so.
