A Japanese who lives in Los Angeles. Project manager for the Discover Nikkei Web site at the Japanese American National Museum.
I’m a Yonsei, occasional artist and writer, and full-time Digital Program Manager at the Japanese American National Museum. I was born in Los Angeles and have lived in Southern California almost my entire life. I am fluent in English, can understand about 80% of conversational Japanese, and don’t know any Spanish or Portuguese (although after having worked on Discover Nikkei for so long, would like to learn someday). I love working in Little Tokyo and living in Gardena. Both areas give me wonderful access to Japanese/Nikkei food, community, and culture. I bowl in a Nikkei league once a week, and spend my free time eating, sleeping, playing on my phone and computer, rooting for the Dodgers, watching TV and reading, spending time with family and friends, and traveling. I love working on Discover Nikkei and learning about so many different Nikkei experiences around the world!
Discover Nikkei Community Engagement Specialist. I am currently working on a master's degree in History at Cal State Los Angeles with a focus on cultural geography of colonial Latin America. I'm fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and excited to use my language skills to support Discover Nikkei. Outside of work, I volunteer as a Court-Appointed Special Advocate for foster youth and dabble in music, visual arts and poetry. I'm also a proud fourth-generation Angeleno.

My name is Mitch Homma. I’m a sansei who grew up and still resides in Southern California. In addition to working as a software and aerospace engineer for a small Chantilly, Virginia based company, my interests include Japanese history and Christianity in Japan. In my spare time, I work on publishing some family items that I believe are important to history and hope it inspires other to do the same. I contribute to three different Discover Nikkei albums which are based on my family’s photo albums, documents, and stories. My current albums contain items from Amache and Heart Mountain Internment Camps as well as Gardena Valley Baptist Church, which 4 generations of family attended. The Amache and Heart Mountain albums are being updated as I come across related photos while still searching through hundreds of photos in boxes. I am also working on two other albums which may be published in the future. Both albums are based on recently uncovered photos and documents. One collection is based on Christianity in Japan (1890-1930) and the pre-WWII Southern California Japanese Christian Federation of churches. The second documents my 2008 trip back to Japan and Amache to see my family history first hand. This album includes pre-WWII and today’s photos of my family’s sites, Japan relatives, and finally my father and his sibling’s emotional closure when visiting Amache during JANM’s Enduring Communities Conference field trip.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Retired from both the U.S Air Force and local government. A Sansei whose parents were incarcerated at Heart Mountain, Wyoming (father) and Rohwer, Arkansas (mother).

In 2023 I was the project director for the Alameda JA History Project, a three year JACS grant. Much of my material is available at Densho. In 2009 I authored "The Street That Dreams Are Made Of," the 100 year history of a Japanese American church in Palo Alto, CA.
