Aya Takase, PhD
I have a head of a scientist and a heart of a salesperson.
Here is how it all came about.
As an X-ray application scientist, I have been working with engineers to design automated and user-friendly analytical instrument software interfaces and providing training courses and consultations for 25 years.
While I enjoy the science side of my job, I get the most satisfaction when working with the sales team, closing deals, and getting orders.
I am a painter trained by a professional artist for seven years and later became a self-taught graphic designer. I have always loved reading and learned to love writing through my work in the last several years.
All these experiences and skills came in handy when I started focusing on inbound marketing for analytical equipment business, which requires scientific background, customer service experience, a love for writing, and graphical user interface and graphic design skills.
I wish I could say I had planned it this way, but I didn’t. If you are not lucky enough to find your passion when you are young, I believe you are better off trying to be passionate about what you do than continuing to search for your passion without settling. So that’s what I did to get here.
