DRUMMM welcomes new intern from Madrid, Spain!

Hello my name is Marta Bergaz, I am from Madrid, Spain. I have been living in the United States for the past two years. I moved to San Francisco last year (from San Diego) and quickly realized that this city was for me –the people, the city, the energy…

When I heard about DRUMMM Rhythmic Events I was so excited! I am fascinated by the idea of mixing entertainment with business. I love making people smile, and learning how drums can communicate this energy. I look forward to meeting new people and learning how to play drums with Jeni Swerdlow.

In addition to earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and Business Administration, I have experience working as an Account Executive and P.R. Manager. Right now I am studying Management and Communications at Intrax International School. I plan to return to Spain someday and start my own family business.

I am enthusiastic, optimistic, friendly and a hard worker—you will see when you come to a DRUMMM event!

DRUMMM welcomes new intern from Japan!

This May, Yasuyo Yamaguchi from Chiba, near Tokyo, Japan, joins the DRUMMM Team as an intern. Visiting San Francisco for 6 months to study English at Intrax International Institute, Yasuyo will be working “hands-on” with DRUMMM at events and behind the scenes for the next two months. A super smart, outgoing and accomplished drummer and computer programmer, here’s what Yasuyo had to say…

What made you decide to some to the U.S. to study English?|

One of my dreams was to go abroad studying English. Talking English with people can expand horizons. I can learn and see many things. Someday I want to work for an international company so that I can communicate with more people.

Why San Francisco?

Two years ago I visited S.F. for sightseeing and I made a lot of friends here. I like San Francisco--the weather, the people, the nice view. That’s why I decided to study here instead of Canada or Australia.

Out of all the businesses in S.F., why did you want to work for DRUMMM?

I play with a marching band in Japan, and was teaching children. (Actually, Yasuyo is the director of her marching band, but she is very modest). So when I heard about DRUMMM, I was excited! I can attend many events and meet different people. I enjoy event planning, such as for travel or parties. I like making people smile. I want to contribute to people’s happiness, smiling and having a good time.

What do you like to do in your free time?

Many things! When I’m not drumming, I like to hang out with my friends, read books at the café or library, and go snowboarding. I like to teach, especially children, how we can make sounds on the drum.

Come meet Yasuyo in person and be part of the international rhythm collaboration! Check the Calendar and join the DRUMMM circle orchestra!
