What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead international sales, business development, and project initiatives where I can build customer relationships, develop markets, improve operations, and coordinate multicultural teams.

I'm managing daily sales, operations, merchandising, inventory, staff coordination, and international customer consultations at Mei-Syou Hamono in Tokyo, where I was promoted to Store Manager within eight months.

I've developed a Japanese handcrafted-knife business with investor support, generating approximately JPY ¥24,700,000 in first-year turnover. I managed product development, sales, customer relationships, and day-to-day commercial activities for international customers.

I also created and launched a Tokyo food and walking-tour business for international visitors, achieving 95 bookings and conducting 64 tours within 2.5 months. I designed the Shinjuku/Kabukicho night-food experience and managed pricing, distribution, customer communication, bookings, and tour operations.

Across Japan, the UAE, and Uzbekistan, I've led B2B sales, marketing, business excellence, and project work for organizations including Pratiksha Hospitals Group, Daka Intex, Sharda Universities Group, Golden Grains Trading, and Jumeirah Beach Hotel.
