I am engaged in investment operations with an interest in all businesses that contribute to the pursuit of individual happiness. In the medical and healthcare fields, I feel both empathy and joy in seeing innovative technologies and services contribute to improving people’s health and quality of life. I am also strongly interested in consumer services that enrich everyday life and the entertainment field that creates excitement and joy. I believe in the potential of businesses that not only solve social issues but also enrich people's minds and will do my best to support their growth.
