Originally from Japan, I have been living in the United States for more than two years. I came to the US to meet and connect with a different culture to expand my design lens.

I am passionate about building meaningful products that make people happy and solve social problems.

I worked at SoftBank in Japan for more than 10 years. For roughly five years I was focused on product marketing. In 2013 I joined a team working directly under Masayoshi Son to create a brand new type of product: communication robotics.

Additionally, I also run my own company. As a lover of dance I realized that there is much value to be created in supporting choreographers and dancers. CHUOLINE works with the top entertainment content creators in Japan.

I love music, dance, and am obsessed with dogs. In the future I’d like to raise a Shiba inu.
