Partner at Saison Capital

The 0 to 1 journey as a founder can be lonely and challenging. I’ve been there.

At Saison Capital & Onigiri Capital, I partner with founders to grow from 0 to 1. 

My 0 to 1 experiences include co-founding:

- Onigiri Capital, a venture capital fund focused on blockchain startups 
- Glints (Series D), Southeast Asia's largest talent platform for career development and recruitment
- Ventures with BCG Digital Ventures (now BCG X)

I also finished my Stanford undergraduate degree with distinction (top 15%) in 2 years.

3 years ago, we started our flagship event with a simple belief: if blockchain was to work in traditional finance, the right people needed to be in the same room 

That means no ice baths (where attendees strip to boxers), no dancing mascots and no drunk parties

Last Wednesday in Tokyo, our 4th edition of ONCHAIN 2026 - Blockchain Summit - brought together 550+ leaders across Japan and internationally. Hosted by Credit Saison Co., Ltd. and Pacific Meta, and executed by our team at Onigiri Capital, this year felt like a turning point 

Not experimentation anymore. Execution has started. 

We launched not one but two partnerships between Stellar Development Foundation <> Kenanga Group as well as Stellar Development Foundation <> TopNod (subsidiary of Ant Digital Technologies) 

Look out for the recap and summary insights from the Summit at our Onigiri Capital LinkedIn page (follow the page to receive the latest)

Partner at Onigiri Capital 🍙 & Saison Capital

In 2025, I spent more than 100 days on the road

Sometimes it’s a long overnight flight across the Pacific to the US or Brazil. Other times it’s a quick hop across Asia. But the routine ends up looking similar: red-eyes, airport coffee, and meetings that start right after landing.

Travel like that makes you appreciate how much the basics matter.

Protecting focus.
Getting enough sleep.
Choosing tools that simply work without friction.

When you spend a lot of time on screens and calls, small details start to matter more. Comfort and reliability start to compound.

Lately I’ve been wearing the K.moriyama Titanium frame from OWNDAYS. It’s lightweight, comfortable for long stretches on screens, and simple enough to work whether I’m in meetings, on a flight, or squeezing in some exercise between trips.

Simple, comfortable, and easy to forget you’re even wearing.

In the end, the best everyday tools are the ones you don’t have to think about

Thanks to OWNDAYS for the thoughtful conversation around vision, focus, and the habits that help us stay sharp.
