About
From 2019 to 2024, I owned and operated an English school in Yokohama, Japan, where I taught over 100 students and built a strong learning community. Now, I’m dedicated to helping local businesses grow through strategic ideas, innovative collaborations, and engaging media. I only take on projects that truly inspire me, ensuring that everything I create reflects my passion and commitment. Beyond content creation, I’ve developed multiple projects, including Spring Learning, Indoor Longboard League, Urban Longboard, Skate[Slate] Japan, and School of Riding. My work spans education, longboarding, and entrepreneurship, always with a focus on fostering creativity and community. Special thanks to Coast Reporter, Truestar, TAM Construction Robotics, and Kranked Bikes.
