Kazuki Nakayashiki

Founder in San Francisco

👋 About Me:

  • Originally from Japan, currently located in San Francisco, CA.
  • Founder of Glasp, a social web clipper to highlight and organize quotes and thoughts from the web, and access other like-minded people’s learning at the same time.
  • I studied Chemistry at The University of Tokyo, Business at UC Berkeley, and Computer Science…
  • Worked at several startups based in SF as a product manager and team lead.
  • Organize Japanese communities based in the SF Bay Area. It’s always fun meeting new people

✍️ What I’m Currently Working On:

  • Glasp - a social knowledge management platform. I’m the founder and designer. Let’s leave your legacies (knowledge) to next generations!
  • Tweet Peep👀 - a fun side project that gives you instant, one-click access to what other people are saying about the articles and videos you’re browsing.

🎉 Fun Facts:

  • I love Philz coffee and have tried all the items on the menu haha (my favs: philharmonic, iced coffee rose, mint mojito, and tesora)
  • I had subdural hematoma when I was 20, and I was almost dead… Thankfully, I'm fine now!
