I am a senior business executive, adviser, and entrepreneur, with over 25 years of executive leadership experience. My career and life path have kept me professionally active in the U.S, and across Asia, with a focus on Japan. This multi-country experience results in my unique approach to high-performance strategies, cultural/personal awareness, investing, and strategic management of businesses in the technology and services sectors. Throughout my career, I have been lucky enough to share my experiences through public/private engagements, university and company lectures, and volunteer work.In the 90's I represented major music equipment brands as an Entertainment Relations Consultant and Guitar Tech for touring bands throughout Asia, and had a few gigs along the way.Outside the office, my interests include music (playing and listening), muscle cars (old Japanese cars - Motor City cars), reading, and self-improvement.Languages: English / Business Japanese
