Hiroko Yamamoto is an assistant professor in the architecture department at the University of Utah. Hiroko moved from Nagoya, Japan to Bluff, Utah when her friend (and later, husband) Atsushi told her about the DesignBuildUtah program, which constructs homes in Bluff in collaboration with the Navajo Nation. They now live there with their two kids.
