Hi CSUN family! My name is Keito! I'm an international student from Tokyo! I'm a senior majoring in Marketing and minoring in Real Estate. I wanted to be a career peer educator because I have a younger sister who is in high school, and I want to help her find the path that excites her. As a big sister, I love helping other folks and listening to everyone's unique stories. Feel free to stop by and talk to me always at the Career Center!
