[Board 26-27 Intros] Nanami Yamakawa!
Social Media Coordinator

Nanami Yamakawa (she/her) is a Japanese actor pursuing a BFA in Music Theatre and Honors in Acting. As a fourth-year undergraduate student at UC Irvine, she is thrilled to be returning to her second and final year serving on the AZN Board as the Social Media Coordinator! 

In her time off the stage, you may see her walking backwards through campus as a Campus Representative. Feel free to say hi if you encounter one of her tours! She has always had a strong passion for arts, crafts, scrapbooking, and junk journaling, so you may catch her saving label stickers or doodling on the corner of her page. 

Her love for media and marketing management, in addition to her passion for advocacy for AANHPI voices in theatre, is fulfilled through her involvement with Underground AZN Players. She is honored to be a part of this community to continue building a space where the art of storytelling can celebrate and empower the voices of all.
