Emi ventured to the United States early in her career and worked as a server and bartender at various Japanese restaurants in New York City. In 2018, she was promoted to Assistant Manager at a prestigious Japanese restaurant, steadily advancing in her career. Although her primary base was New York, Emi moved to Hawaii in 2022, where she gained valuable experience working at her first Italian restaurant. Now, she proudly joins Sushi Waku as Manager and Sake/Wine Specialist.
Emi has a passion for alcoholic beverages, with deep knowledge not only in sake but also in wine and whiskey. She continuously seeks out new sake varieties to select the perfect ginjo sake that complements Sushi Waku's exquisite sushi.EmiBack
