Today, we live in a world that companies, international traders, and individual business professionals are now pushed to operate on an international plain, one without boarders.

I.R.D.I. is a collection of talented professionals located in Japan, North and South America, China, New Zealand and Europe, that have come together to provide services and support our international business community.

After graduating from Sacramento State University with a degree in International Relations (Govt.) and Developmental Economics. I worked for California Tourism and Trade Commerce in the economics division specializing in Pacific Rim affairs.

Wanting to get a better understanding of the International trends of culture, business and economics that impact California and the Pacific Rim economy. I moved to Japan where I stayed for 4 1/2 years. While there I worked as a corporate business instructor teaching at Universities and companies in Osaka Japan. In other functions I also was a consultant for both Japanese and American firms to help them facilitate business interactions.

Over the years many professionals and business owners both in the U.S. and Japan have conveyed to me the problems and concerns that hold them bound to overly competitive domestic markets. And keep them from pursuing much less competitive more lucrative international markets. Challenges such as research, locating of manufactures, buyers, maneuvering through customs, communicating in a foreign language, and obtaining legal support. Providing solutions for small and midsize companies and producers the back bone of the world economy in relation to these specific problems is the focal point of our mission.

With support from our committed management staff in various regions
, Mr. Liu Hong Kong, Mrs. Lum Shanghai, Mr. Wong Xian of China, Mr. Morinaga, and Mrs. Makino of Japan. Ms. Prattley New Zealand, Mr. Blunt of Europe, Mr. Sanchez of Mexico, Mr. Ortega of South America Brazil. We together are able to direct our domestic teams and provide you with the International support you need.
