Permanent resident of Canada 🇨🇦 from Japan 🇯🇵, currently spending most of my time in Malawi 🇲🇼 in Africa at the intersection of tech and society.
I am a freelance software developer, previously working at a Big Tech & Silicon Valley-based start-up company while wearing different hats such as an engineer and product manager.
My journey can be summarized as follows:
- Took multiple roles between engineering, science, and business;
- Served different scales of business at start-up, Big Tech, and as an independent;
- Worked globally (both physically and remotely) on diverse verticals such as e-commerce, gaming, online media, and supply chain.
Through the personalized mentorship program, I will turn my experiences into actionable advice so we can think, work, and grow together.
Does my background resonate with your immediate focus? Do you already have a tangible goal in your career or project but are unsure how to approach it? Are you seeking an accountability partner to make meaningful progress in tech, science, business, and/or philanthropy? Feel free to send me an inquiry, apply for a mentorship plan, or book a discovery call from Sessions, so we can transform your ambitious goal into a concrete action plan.

Takuya is a fantastic mentor and he helped me while I was building a recommender system. He has tremendous knowledge of technology, project management, recommender systems, software, machine learning, and what I call "uncommon" sense. I feel very fortunate to have had him as a mentor, and look forward to applying what I learned from him in the future.
