About
UX Design Lead at WHILL Inc | MBA at Imperial College London
With eight years of experience across Retail, Logistics, Manufacturing, Stadium, Broadcasting, Mobility, Finance, and Public sectors, I've built a strong foundation as a service and product designer at Panasonic Japan. Later, I restructured the Panasonic Design Centre Europe in London, establishing a robust B2B service design foundation for SCM sectors and leading the team as a Design Director. Since 2022, I've been leading UX design at WHILL and contributing as a Planning Manager (Mobility Rental Service). My passion is to bring a creative perspective to business activities and create innovative personal mobility solutions and service platforms that give everyone the freedom to move and explore the world without limitations.
Projects
I was responsible for the UX/UI design of a mobile app and operation tools that offers onsite fleet rental services, including powered wheelchairs and electric scooters. The app is currently available in the US, Canada, and Japan.

Served as both a project manager and an industrial designer. We facilitated live shopping experiences through mobile shops (known as Yatai, in Japanese) from the heart of Tokyo, connecting experts in remote islands or rural areas.
