Halvsie

My name is Saren Sakurai. My day job is as a Director of Marketing in the Cybersecurity space. During the rest of my time I follow Japanese National Soccer, Japanese food trends in California, DC Punk Rock from 1982-1986, East Coast Hip Hop from 1988-1992, Japanese Hard Rock 1998-2002 and my favorite group is A Tribe Called Quest. I've read a ton of Hunter S. Thompson and Eiji Yoshikawa. My favorite TV shows are The Wire, Archer, Saturday Night Live 1975-1979 and Nasubi.
