My long-term career goal is to disseminate Japan’s excellent railroad operational techniques across the world to achieve safe and stable railroad operations. Using my background in civil engineering and business, and particularly in technology policy, I will promote the standardization of Japanese technology across the railroad industry to contribute to developing countries. To achieve my goal, I must learn how to create a sustainable business plan that links standardization and a global business strategy. In addition, I need to acquire leadership skills to convince people to support me and to build a proper organization.Goizueta Business School is the best place to learn that knowledge.

Developing industry standards (IRS) that are published by International Union of Railways and international standards for various industries (ISO), coordinating with related departments within JRE1) Proposed disaster mitigation technology in which JRE has strengths as part of Railway International Business Development Strategy, which was adopted by General Manager 2) Visualized versatility of technology, understanding industry-specific knowledge and market needs; conducted interviews with relevant internal and external departments3) IP strategy project for disaster prevention technology ・Selected as core member of project that consisted of both standardization strategy and IP departments　 ・Submitted and approved drafts as IP strategy applicable by management members4) Representative of ISO subcommittee on railways and subgroup operations working group on disaster mitigation operations ・Insisted on potential of Japan’s railroad technology to contribute to preventing natural disasters, using JRE’s past disaster measures as reference materials; reached consensus in working group to study natural disasters　　・Led development of the framework and presented it at international meeting5) Presented at National Level Disaster Mitigation Dissemination Workshop in Indonesia, which was organized by World Bank (2021)6) Presented at Technical Visit for India Earthquake Delegation, which was organized by World Bank (2023)

Worked on developing IRS standard as only engineer in department with Bachelor of Commerce 1) Incorporated domestic bullet train standards into IRS standards at international conference as core member2) Gathered information; organized meetings with specialists of each operating system; prepared proposal for changes in standards in signaling; succeeded in including Japan’s criteria; demonstrated consistent record of safe operation of domestic bullet trains, which applies to other areas

As an expert in track geometry and maintenance, I analyzed thousands of numerical data collected daily from onboard equipment monitoring track conditions to ensure the safety of train operations.

1) Earned GPA of 3.78 as working student; recognized as valedictorian at graduation ceremony2) Selected as one of four scholars from JRE to study their undergraduate program based on interview and essaysI learned in college as a working professional. While I have had a career as an engineer at JR East, I have always been interested in international business as well as civil engineering. Therefore, I applied for and was accepted to the company's scholarship program from 2014 to 2018 and studied at Chuo University's School of Commerce as a working student. During my studies, I won two scholarships from Chuo University for my academic achievements and was elected as the valedictorian of the Faculty of Commerce. Furthermore, in my study, I gained A grades in quantitative subjects, such as Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, EconomicsⅠ, FinanceⅠ&Ⅱ, and Business Management and Accounting.

1) Procured railroad track equipment2) Managed railroad track construction budget3) Directed railroad track construction work

Engaged in railroad track design and improvement work and facilitated property management

I develop international standards (ISO) to spread our company's techniques abroad by adding our technical specifications to those standards. In particular, as one of the Japanese representatives for ISO of disaster prevention technology areas, I coordinated ideas from domestic-related companies and presented them at an international conference.

I develop international railway solutions (IRS) to spread our company's techniques abroad by adding our technical specifications to those standards. As IRS covers various fields of the railroad (Civil engineering, energy, signal&communication, rolling stock), it is necessary to consider various technical and business aspects. I coordinated ideas from in-house experts' opinions and presented them at an international conference.
