About Me
I am an Enterprise Security specialist with a career rooted in system engineering. Starting in infrastructure and global project management at MUFG Bank, I transitioned into cybersecurity and have since built expertise across endpoint security, identity, and governance automation. I now lead security engineering at Mercari, where I focus on building "invisible security" — robust compliance that moves at the speed of engineering.
