ABOUT SARA WAKA: <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Thanks to my parents – both Japanese Opera singers who moved to Italy for love – I consider myself Milanese. I live between Milan<\/strong>, Paris<\/strong>, and Tokyo<\/strong> where I work as a creative consultant and I was brand ambassador for international companies like Christian Louboutin<\/strong>, Piaget<\/strong>, Hogan<\/strong>, Nintendo Italia<\/strong>, Asahi Super Dry<\/strong>, and more.<\/p>\n

After earning a Bachelor degree in Art, Valorisation and Market<\/strong>, I completed my Masters in Cultural Mediation<\/strong>. Following which, I held positions across a multitude of creative sectors: as a contributor for L\u2019Officiel Italia<\/strong> and Elle Japan<\/strong>, a Japanese guide at the Prada Fondation<\/strong>, and cultural mediator for EXPO Milan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

My extroverted nature, creative outlook, and interest in different cultures led me to create Wakapedia<\/strong> in 2013<\/strong>. What started as a passion for showcasing the unique people I had the pleasure of meeting, over time, blossomed into an international creative organization.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
