Hey, there! こんにちは！ 안녕하세요!
Thanks for checking my website 🙂
I come from a small town in the north of France and moved to Japan a few years ago. After graduating from a double Master degree in International Business & Management, I joined adidas Japan.
In 2020, when the pandemic hit, it became clear that no tourists would be visiting Japan anytime soon. So, I decided to send Japanese snacks to my friends and family. They loved it, and I decided to make it a business. On September 5th 2020, I bought the domain name tokyosnackbox.com. In 2021, while still working full-time at adidas Japan, I grew Tokyo Snack Box to a profitable 150k euros a year subscription box business and doubled my income. This side-hustle helped me improve my knowledge in e-commerce, digital marketing, data analysis, and CRM for the European/French-speaking market. Additionally, my job at adidas gave me knowledge in the same areas, but for the Japanese market. On March 1st 2022, I joined Tiffany & Co. Japan as a CRM Data Analyst to further my knowledge and experience in data analysis for another industry.

Skills
Here are a couple software I can use and things I can do.
Be super helpful
I take pride in being the go-to person whenever someone has a problem that needs to be solved quickly.
Act with humility
Treating everyone's opinion with respect, learn from people with more experience.
Maximize efficiency
Minimize unnecessary taks and get the 80% done using 20% of resources. Think outside the box and find ways to make things work.
Focus on customers
Asking myself what pain points customers have and how we can solve it.
Guides & Articles
Based on my personal experience, I have witten a couple of blog articles. The topics vary from how-to guides to live in Japan, marketing guides etc...
Any question?
A short FAQ where I try to answer the most common questions I get :
I love my current job, but I am also open to new opportunities. If you think there is a fit with my profile, feel free to send me a DM!
Right now, the team I'm working for is not hiring any intern. I can give you general advice about how to land an internship/job in Japan, but please come up with a list of clear questions.
For now, I don't have the need for support but it might come at a later stage. If you are interested, I invite you to follow the different accounts of @TokyoSnackBox on social media, where I would post about such topic.
Thanks for the kind words. If you want a similar website for yourself or your company (we can even add a job board), I can build it for you! All you have to do is send me what you need + your budget at this email.

- We're using the quote block to create the fixed navbar instead of an ID, so it should work out of the box, but that means you can't really use the Notion quote block anywhere else throughout this template. Thinking of better ways to go about this!
- The navbar & footer are global Notion blocks, meaning if you edit the ones on the template home page, it'll carry the changes over to the rest of the site
