Jillian Tamaki: Hi, my name is Jillian Tamaki. Tamaki is a Japanese name. I am, I guess, third generation Canadian. My grandfather was born in Canada, as was my father. So, I am very, very integrated into Canadian society. In fact, so much so that I have been told that I actually say my own name wrong. It should be Tamaki, I believe, but I am happy just to say Tamaki. That's my name, Jillian Tamaki.
