Yumiko Nagao

Since study-abroad experience in high school, Yumiko Nagao found passion in communication in English and Art.  She attended University of California, Santa Barbara and soon joined in College of Creative Studies, one of the US's leading prestigious art and design colleges, and a top ranked, private, fully accredited college in the same university to pursue painting.  She continued her study in Visual arts at University of California, San Diego with full scholarship and acquired Master of Fine Arts. Yumiko Nagao now works as a translator/interpreter/creative writer for the Day Spa in Osaka.  Meanwhile, she is passionate about chanoyu, the Japanese tea ceremony, classic ballet, art and of course her family.  As a key supporter, Nagao keeps asking what really wellness means and what GWD can do. If wellness is a right for all humanity not a privilege and should not be a luxury, what should be prioritized?
