With a relevant academic background, I have extensive professional experience in the field of strategy consulting, especially in geopolitics. In my role as a consultant, I have supported numerous Japanese companies across various industries, providing geopolitical perspectives through scenario analysis or intelligence enhancement. Additionally, as an academic, I conduct research in Southeast Asian politics and occasionally publish articles on the subject.
