On April 12, the USJC New York Regional Committee, chaired by USJC Board Member Terry Suzuki (ORIX Corporation USA), organized a vibrant no-host dinner at Hakka Cuisine in Chinatown. The evening began with an engaging introduction by the newly appointed President and CEO, Audrey Yamamoto. She shared insights into her prior involvement with the council as a 2023 JALD delegate along with Executive Vice President Fred Katayama and discussed her vision for upholding the Council’s legacy while introducing innovative leadership strategies. The event provided an excellent opportunity for regional members, sponsors and potential new members to network while enjoying a selection of delicious dishes. Special thanks to Council Leaders Darin Arita (New York Life) and Marc Iyeki (Green Impact Exchange) for their pivotal roles in organizing another successful gathering.
