USBorn in Japan, I studied abroad at a high school in France before attending university in the United States. Leveraging the language skills I developed in multicultural environments, I am currently responsible for coordinating with stakeholders and sharing information, supporting the smooth operation of teams and projects.
MESSAGE
At university, I studied film aesthetics with the aim of becoming an anime director or a manga artist.
However, in Japan, being able to draw is essential, and at that time, the concept of specialization was not well established.
There were also no companies where I could join as a screenwriter or assistant director.
I continued to pursue my goal of becoming an anime director,
bringing my scripts to directors who were beginning to gain recognition.
However, I could not achieve the results I hoped for and eventually gave up on my dream, taking a job at an advertising agency.
At that time, I couldn’t understand why it was so difficult to pursue a dream
in a country like Japan, where manga and anime are so abundant.
As time went on, the rise of YouTube and social media ushered in an era where anyone could become a creator.
Now, I spend my days striving to achieve the dream I once aspired to.
Additionally, I hope to utilize AI to uncover hidden talent and share it with the world.
