Sakura Sato

Vice President Operations, Co-Founder 

I oversee all back-office functions and operational management at RYZE, encompassing finance, HR, labor relations, general affairs, marketing, and regulatory licensing. My role involves designing and managing these cross-functional areas to ensure daily operations run smoothly and strategically.

In close collaboration with the president, I also contribute to strengthening internal structures and coordinating with external partners. By visualizing and optimizing the often “invisible” aspects of the organization, I aim to reinforce RYZE’s operational foundation and support its sustainable growth.

After graduating from Ritsumeikan University with a degree in Policy Science, I began my career at Namco (now Bandai Namco), followed by roles at Getty Images Japan and later in the marketing division at LVMH Cosmetics through a headhunting opportunity.
