Michiyo Fujimoto

International Education Coordinator

Hello, I’m Michi! My interest in international education began as a high school exchange student in Tacoma, Washington. That experience changed my life. After earning my degree in Japan, I worked for a British company based in Japan and for a major U.S. airline as a flight attendant. Later, I earned a TESOL degree at the University of Mississippi and began working in international education.

I have my own experience as an international student in the U.S., and I have also supported many Japanese university students studying abroad. I returned to Washington State in 2023 and joined the team in January 2026.  I am excited to help Green River College students feel confident and supported in their own journeys. 

In my free time, I enjoy handicrafts, gardening, hiking, movies, music, and playing with cats.
