I have always been passionate about aircraft as one of the most advanced means of transportation and their vast global market. The aircraft leasing industry sits at a unique crossroads of global transportation, finance, and investment. At Clover, I have had valuable opportunities to grow with the Company since it began its operations in Japan, starting with managing client relationships and later leading regional initiatives as Clover expands its footprint. As a division head, I am dedicated to empowering my team, encouraging collaboration, and driving sustainable growth for both our clients and the Company.

I’m truly proud to be part of the team that is widely recognized as a leading global player in the aircraft leasing industry and a trusted professional presence in the Japanese market. By leveraging the expertise of our headquarter and Dublin office, we offer a broader range of aircraft products and services to support aircraft investments in Japan. The strong support from Mizuho group has also been instrumental in building and strengthening local trust, and today Clover is widely regarded as a reliable long-term partner with deep global expertise in the Japanese market.

As the interest in aircraft investment continues to grow among Japanese investors, we are fully prepared to engage with that momentum and provide tailored solutions that meet their specific investment goals, with our two key focuses being global business development and profound client engagement.

As the Head of Legal at Clover, I have been impressed by the company’s clear sense of purpose and direction. The strong commercial acumen and pragmatic, solutions-oriented approach closely align with my vision of how the Legal department should perform. Cross-functional collaboration is seamless, driven by a shared commitment to delivering timely results, allowing Legal to proactively contribute to the company’s success.

Being a non-local team member in the Hong Kong office, I have experienced Clover as a genuinely inclusive and internationally minded organization. The team has been incredibly welcoming, and the collaborative spirit across geographies makes it easy to feel connected and contribute from day one.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, Clover has laid an exceptional foundation. Looking ahead, I envision us expanding globally, diversifying our capabilities, and cementing our position as a leading aviation lessor. As the company evolves, I see Legal playing a more strategic role in shaping key decisions, strengthening risk management, and supporting innovation through trusted, practical guidance that drives Clover’s continued growth.

Clover is a place that truly fosters career development. Over the years, I have transitioned from a support function to a front-line commercial role, which pushed me out of my comfort zone and opened up new paths for growth, from establishing client relationships to negotiating complex transactions.

What continues to motivate me is the trust and recognition from leadership, along with the fulfilment that comes from overcoming challenges. As both a parent and a top performer, I deeply appreciate Clover’s supportive environment, which enables me to balance work and family through thoughtful planning, clear prioritization, and strong teamwork.

Today, clients see Clover as a reliable and innovative partner with a proven track record, consistently valuing our transparency, strong execution, and long-term commitment. We embrace calculated risks and stay agile in a competitive market. Our leadership empowers individuals to take ownership, fostering a culture of accountability and collaboration that drives our success.

Proactiveness has always been of Clover’s utmost importance. The Aviation industry is a fast-paced environment marked by rapid technological advancement and market changes, which demand forward-thinking actions. I found that this aligns perfectly with my personal and professional aspirations.

Our initiative-driven and value-added approach to client engagement along with the strong cross-border connections among our offices in Hong Kong, Japan and Dublin enable us to deliver distinctive and exceptional services. These qualities have contributed significantly to the Company’s recognition in Japanese Market and my own professional growth.  This valuable culture supports Clover’s Mission as an industry leader and serves as the key to our continued success.

I am confident that Clover provides an ideal environment for me to further deepen my expertise in the aviation sector and contribute value by delivering comprehensive and top-notch service to our clients from a broader perspective.
