Mayo Tonai’s job title of Ecommerce Support Supervisor sounds deceptively simple.

Mayo Tonai started in Japan, then Tokyo after graduating college working imports for Japan Airline(JAL). She also worked in Sydney, Australia for American Express and Thomson Reuters, giving her a birds-eye view of global shipping logistics.
