Hi, I’m Robby Suozzi—a professionally trained actor and bilingual English–Japanese communicator with a passion for acting, the arts, teaching, translation, and design. I have performed on stage in the US and recorded three albums during my time in Japan. I taught English in Japan, as well, through the JET Program, edited and translated for companies around Japan, and I enjoy coaching local teams in ice hockey and contributing to community programs. My background spans theater and music production, education, marketing support, and 3D technology, complemented by a BA in Japanese language and communications and TESOL certifications. I’m excited to blend acting, language, technology, and education in collaborative environments.
