Tokyo, Japan
Over the past 10 years, I’ve led products across AI, payments, mixed reality, education, and fashion -- taking ideas from concept to launch and scale. I work best in ambiguous, zero-to-one environments, combining product strategy, user insight, and execution to define direction and drive alignment across teams. My experience spans product leadership, prototyping, financial modeling, and P&L ownership, with a focus on building products that balance customer needs, technical feasibility, and business impact. I also create early concepts and prototypes to accelerate decision-making and help teams validate ideas before major engineering investment. PMP-certified and bilingual in English and Japanese (JLPT N1 / BJT J1+), I’ve worked extensively across global teams while based in Japan.
