| Current Location | Yakushima (Kagoshima), Japan |
| WordPress Origin Story | After I switched my personal blog system to WordPress, I started helping out with Japanese documentation and support forums because there was so little information on WordPress in Japanese back then. I may be referred to as 高野直子 / @naokomc, or Naoko McCracken in the past! |
