The Team

Katsukats is run by a rag-tag group of friends who all have a strong passion for language learning and the culture of Japan. Below you will get a behind the scenes look at the members running this adorable little website.


TAYLOR EDWARDS (テイラー・エドワーズ)

Taylor works as Katsukats’ designer curator of the Japanese section of the site. He’s currently pursuing a film degree at Arizona State University and has aspirations to move to Japan to become a コンビニ connoisseur.

A glorified manga and film nerd, it’s easy to see why he’s interested in learning and teaching Japanese.


KATE OTTO (ケイト・オット)

Kate works as a main contributor of articles for the site’s blog and makes sure everything on the site looks pretty. She is currently pursuing a Japanese language degree at Arizona State University.


SETH COONROD (セス・クーンロッド)

Resident checker-man. His job is to make sure that the rest of the team doesn’t post anything that is embarrassing, stupid, or incorrect. He’s got bachelor’s degrees in linguistics and an East-Asian Studies from the University of Texas. He is also the owner of Imabi.net.

Seth has aspirations to move to Japan to become a Pokemon master.
