Message from the Representative

代表者メッセージ

After 12 years at KPMG Azsa, one of Japan's Big Four audit firms, and two years at an accounting firm in Singapore, I returned to Japan and founded this practice in Fukuoka.

In Singapore, I witnessed firsthand how many Japanese companies were held back from overseas expansion simply due to a lack of accessible information and support. Back in Japan, I saw the mirror image: foreign entrepreneurs trying to build businesses here, struggling with complex tax rules and the language barrier.

My belief is simple — having an approachable, English-speaking CPA who understands both worlds makes all the difference. I am committed to making Japan's tax system accessible for everyone who calls this country home.
