After completing his Associate in Arts degree at HTIC in Winter 2002, alumnus Eisaku Kondo returned to Japan to complete his studies at Tokai University’s Shonan campus. A student of HTIC Chancellor Naoto Yoshikawa, Eisaku majored in International Relations, studying the subject at HTIC and then at Shonan when Dr. Yoshikawa left HTIC to join the faculty there in Spring 2002.

Since graduating from Tokai University, Eisaku has successfully worked as a sales representative for Bayer Health Care, selling pharmaceuticals to hospitals in Japan.

He credits his time at HTIC with helping him develop the interpersonal communication skills and confidence that have made him successful at his job as a salesperson. He hopes, in time, to run for political office. Eisaku is certain that the knowledge and skills gained here as an international student and from the political science classes on government taken from Chancellor Yoshikawa will serve him well as he pursues that dream.

To relax Eisaku likes to ride his motorbike and travel – coming to Hawaii yearly and stopping by at HTIC to say hello.
