11歳の時、訪れたネパールで「豊かさとは何か」を考え始め、途上国に関心を持つ。大学院時代に「民間企業のリソースやスピード感を国際協力の分野、社会課題解決の為により活用できないか」と考え、卒業後にコンサルタント会社に就職。同社退職後、本格的に被災地に関わり、以来、国内の課題や地域活性化にも関心をもつ。「日本の地域活性事業開発」「途上国での事業開発」には共通点があり、課題も繋がっていると感じ、両地域に関わるようになる。政府や援助機関、大〜中小企業、起業家やNGO等、様々な立場から社会課題を見つめ、 協力し合えるような、優しく持続的な「個」と「事業」の開発・構築を目指す。

TEDxFukuokaSalon is one of the TEDx conferences.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
