After graduation, Jason Kelly (ENGL 鈥�93) began technical writing for IBM and worked as a freelancer before publishing his first book. One of Jason鈥檚 Japanese publishers, Shueisha, brought him to Tokyo on book tour in 1999. He took that opportunity to visit his old high school exchange student friend. Japan went straight to Jason鈥檚 heart, and he decided to stay there. He rented out his home in California and moved to Sano, Japan in 2002 for what he thought was going to be a one-year stay. many years later, he still lives and works there.
After the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, he started Socks for Japan, a volunteer organization that hand-delivered 160,000 care packages from around the world to survivors. In 2016, Kelly started his YouTube channel, 鈥淭alk in Tokyo,鈥� which introduces the world鈥檚 largest city and its culture to visitors.

I am currently involved in the education industry, having started an English-language debate and public speaking company听called听LearningLeaders. We've had the privilege of working with听over 500 students over the past two years, and recently grew to 13 employees! Shanghai is a wonderful and vibrant city, and I thank CAS for giving me the proper preparation for setting up in China!

I have always been interdisciplinary, drawing from political science, sociology, cultural studies鈥攁nything contemporary that intersected with religion in an interesting way.听It wasn鈥檛 until I began my PhD at McGill University that I realized that media was an important part of the religious studies conversation too. Hinduism in particular has an interesting relationship to technology and innovation historically, and it has adapted in fascinating and creative ways. Few scholars have explored topics in Hinduism and media, so I鈥檓 thrilled to be among the few!
