Eiko is a research administrator and Japanese native, formerly trained as a biological scientist. She “retired” from the benchtop in 2016 and shifted her focus to supporting scientists from behind the scenes. She is delighted to pay homage to Seattle, where her US life started and to support fantastic Team Simon!

A former athlete and dancer (among many other pursuits), Eiko loves exploring all kinds of movement — including the movements of the mind — as well as the wonderfully interesting and diverse communities in New York City, where she currently resides.
