PROFILE

After working in the financial industry as a sales professional for over ten years, I went through maternity leave and childcare, during which I often wondered, “How should I work from here on?”
It was during this period of uncertainty that I encountered career consulting. Through dialogue, my perspective broadened and my mindset shifted positively—an experience that became the foundation of my desire to support others in their careers.

Currently, due to changes in my family’s life stage, I am based in Malaysia, where I am expanding my global perspective while studying English.
I support individuals with study-abroad or working-holiday experience, as well as those aiming for a global career, so they can make choices that truly align with who they are.

Q
Can you tell us about your background and career history?
After graduating from university, I worked in the financial industry for over ten years as a sales professional, experiencing nationwide transfers while navigating major life events such as marriage, childbirth, and childcare. At each turning point, I found myself questioning my career and work style.

When returning to work after maternity leave, I felt uncertain about “what kind of work style I should choose going forward,” and it was then that I encountered career consulting. The conversations I had helped me regain confidence and clarity—an experience that became a major turning point.

Later, when my family relocated overseas, I faced challenges such as learning English and adapting to a new environment. Through these experiences, my desire to support people who are ready to take a new step grew stronger, leading me to obtain the National Career Consultant qualification and pursue a career in career support.

Now based in Malaysia, I work with individuals who have studied or worked abroad, those seeking overseas employment, and anyone standing at a career crossroads, helping them envision and build a future that feels true to themselves.

Q
What message would you like to share with those considering career support?
Studying abroad or going on a working holiday is truly a wonderful experience.
Challenging yourself in a new environment, expanding your worldview, and discovering new possibilities within yourself—these moments become a lifelong asset.

At the same time, when thinking about how to connect those experiences to your future career, it’s natural for new insights and questions to arise.

In my sessions, I value the time spent exploring your strengths, values, and interests together, and clarifying “how you want to live and work moving forward.”
Whether it’s designing a career that leverages your strengths, setting career goals, or taking on a new challenge with no prior experience, I support you in a collaborative, companion-style approach.

Let’s ensure your study-abroad or working-holiday experience becomes more than just a memory—
let’s turn it into a meaningful part of your unique career story.
I would be delighted to help you take that next step.
