185 - Dr. Kit Miyamoto Discusses the Magnitude and Fault Lines of His Amazing Career

On this episode of The Zweig Letter podcast, we sit down with Dr. Kit Miyamoto from Miyamoto International.  Dr. Kit shared his origin story with us, which included coming from Tokyo to the United States with a desire to play football for the Dallas Cowboys ultimately.  

 


This conversation would have been super interesting if he had made the team, but I believe the world is a better and safer place because he didn’t.  Learn more about Dr. Kit, Miyamoto International, Miyamoto Relief, and his desire to make buildings worldwide stronger, safer, and earthquake resistant.
