I'm a management consultant from Accenture with 5 years of experience specializing in financial services — working across both the business and systems sides of banking, asset management, and custody operations. Unlike consultants who stay in the boardroom or pure engineers who stay in the code, I operate at the intersection: translating business strategy into system requirements, and turning technical constraints into decisions that executives can act on. What I bring to your project: - Business & Requirements Analysis — structuring complex operational challenges into clear, executable requirements across both business and IT stakeholders - Business Process Design — redesigning workflows in custody, fund administration, and data operations with an eye on both the people and the systems involved - Vendor Evaluation — full-cycle support from RFP design through vendor scoring and final recommendation, covering both functional fit and technical feasibility - Executive Reporting — building decision-ready materials for C-suite and senior management that cut through complexity without losing substance - EN↔JP Translation — native-level bilingual across financial, legal, and operational contexts Who I work best with: Fintech companies, asset managers, custodian banks, and financial institutions tackling operational complexity — system implementations, vendor selections, process redesigns, or cross-border projects requiring Japanese language fluency. I'm most valuable when the problem sits between business and IT, and no one is quite sure who should own it. How I work: Consulting trains you for ambiguity, competing priorities, and deadlines that don't move. I ask the questions others miss early, structure the work before diving in, and communicate clearly throughout. I'll flag issues before they become problems — not after. Open to a scoping call or a small initial project.
