Having joined Harris Black in 2010 for her first full-time job, Tomoka has been part of the team for more than 15 years. Outside of work, she enjoys keeping active at the gym and is looking forward to upcoming trips to Fiji with family and Melbourne for a girls’ getaway.

When it comes to food, Tomoka is a big fan of anything deep-fried, with fried chicken taking the top spot, and she enjoys making homemade tempura vegetables and prawns. Her dream dinner guests would be an eclectic mix of Taylor Swift, her karate teacher, actor Kim Soo-hyun and artist Yayoi Kusama, making for a fascinating evening with plenty of stories.

If stranded on a deserted island, Tomoka would take her dad, a rope and a knife. If you ever need advice on dealing with children’s tantrums, Tomoka could confidently give a 40-minute presentation.

With plenty of experience, reliability and a good sense of humour. It’s great to have the opportunity to re-meet Tomoka and learn a little more about the person behind the role.
