What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role where I can lead innovative projects, foster collaboration, and drive growth in a forward-thinking company.

I am a dedicated project manager with extensive experience in ecommerce and digital development. Currently, I lead projects at Rakuten in Tokyo, where I have played a key role in launching a multi-year marketplace upgrade, generating over $500 million in revenue. My expertise lies in managing cross-functional teams and utilizing agile methodologies to streamline processes and enhance productivity.

Previously, I coordinated digital projects at PlayBrain, overseeing significant brand rollouts and enhancing user experience through effective UX/UI design. My ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, while ensuring adherence to strict timelines and budgets, has been instrumental in my success. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive business growth and improve operational efficiencies.
