Chiara
For the first couple years of my career I was the Japan Rep for IE Business School, followed by a stint at Criteo (a performance display ad company) as the only non-Japanese Business Development Manager (so much keigo, so little time). Currently I do Inbound Marketing for a online travel service called Veltra (aka I get people interested in trying awesome tours in Japan).
I love running, koto and shamisen, ethnomusicology, singing, food, travel and many many other things. Yoroshiku!
