About me
In my previous role as Vice President at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, one of Japan's largest banks, I had the privilege of collaborating with global-scale enterprises and executives from diverse industries, such as finance, food, tourism, retail, and B2B. My mission was to understand their ambitions and facilitate their financial needs.
In this era of paradigm shifts, I recognized the importance of equipping myself with design methodologies to better serve businesses. Hence, I embarked on a journey to master these methodologies by pursuing a Master of Design at the Institute of Design.
Today, my focus remains dedicated to comprehending organizations' aspirations and translating them into actionable strategies that drive positive change.
