Investment Philosophy
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
I have been a founding partner in a business built from scratch, and I have held corporate marketing and Asia-Pacific HR leadership roles at multinationals, responsible for integrating and managing organizations across borders.
I am taking ownership of my life through long-termism and compounding. With a minimalist aesthetic, time outdoors, and a shepherd dog for company. Now I build a life with both a rational frame and independence of mind, without drawing a line between work and life, simply experiencing it.

Background
I spent nearly ten years early in my career immersed in marketing and public relations, from a leading global skincare brand to one of the big international enterprise software companies. What those years taught me above all was how to read people and pick up the subtle shifts in a market, and they showed me that I had an instinctive curiosity about how companies connect with people and how a brand carries value.
That curiosity led me to take a genuinely bold step: founding and running a human resources consulting firm with partners. Over nearly eight years we grew from Taiwan into Shanghai and Singapore, built a cross-border team, and served a long list of semiconductor, software, e-commerce, and consumer brands. Running the company myself, handling complex cross-border organizations and talent moves, is what made one thing clear to me: a company's core competitive strength is always its people and the way it is structured.
Later I moved into software as Asia-Pacific HR Director, helping stand up business units in several countries, building distributed cross-border teams, and seeing organizations through restructuring and transformation. There is a deep satisfaction in watching the right person land in the right role, or a cross-border team suddenly find its energy because the structure finally fits.
Joining Kenbun Capital as a board member, where I help assess people and the key decisions in the businesses we invest in, felt like a natural destination. I had come to see that what I built over those years was the ability to look past the complexity on the surface of a business or an organization, identify the people with real strategic nerve, and put a solid organizational frame in place.
None of this happens quickly; it is what long-termism and compounding produce together. What I want is to be among people who share the same convictions and are genuinely excited about the future, and at the intersection of capital, talent, and enterprise, to build businesses that can keep growing.
