I turn emerging-technology narratives into institutional revenue — across borders, industries and cycles.
Founder and senior commercial executive with 15+ years building, scaling and commercializing technology-driven businesses across Japan, Korea, Greater China and Southeast Asia. I bring a rare mix of AI, Web3, sports-tech and digital-transformation experience — translating product, data and ecosystem capabilities into strategic partnerships and scalable commercial adoption.
The numbers behind the narrative.
Built and exited tech businesses; closed partnerships with some of the world's most recognised institutions.
One node, many worlds.
A connector sits between markets and institutions. These are some of the brands engaged through partnerships, BD and strategy — across Web3, AI, enterprise, media — and sport.
