At 16, she left Japan on her own for the United States and, while still in high school, founded her first venture — a server company in New York. After traveling the world, she built a career in technology and consulting, earning a Master's degree from Harvard University and an Executive MBA from ESCP Business School along the way, on the foundation of a Bachelor's in Physics from Syracuse University. Across 30+ years in the field, including more than 45 enterprise engagements in pharma, finance, automotive, advertising, government and defense, she has developed deep expertise in both engineering and business — from data science in Python to app development in Swift to digital strategy.
In October 2026 OMG merged into EDM Association, extending HQ's capabilities from data & analytics to engineering and digital twins, with AR and AI training and certification now in preparation. My aim is to connect these newly unified global standards with Japanese practice and help energise the Japanese market.
