About Me

My deep understanding of Japanese businesses helps our Japanese clients make their business successful, by understanding their worldwide legal requirements.

I head our global Japan Business Development team from our Hong Kong office, supporting our Japanese clients across the globe with our lawyers for clients' global business expansion. I deliver brainstorming sessions with our consulting arm, OXYGY, and workshop with our offices where Japanese companies focus on for their investment. I also deliver project coordination in Japanese for better project procedure.

I joined Bird & Bird in 2017 and I am based in our Hong Kong office, after working for one of the major international law firms in Tokyo.
