Tochi Abara
Engineer by trade, creative by nature. I build software, design experiences, and launch brands. Right now I'm founding ventures across fashion, food, and travel, and when I'm not building, you'll find me on stage or mentoring young people.
What I Do
I sit at the intersection of engineering, design, and entrepreneurship. Building things that matter.
Engineering
I've spent years shipping products across web, mobile, and cloud, from early-stage startups to large-scale enterprise systems. I care about building software that actually works and solves real problems.
Design
I think like a designer before I think like an engineer. Good software isn't just functional, it's intuitive, intentional, and beautiful. That lens shapes how I approach every product I touch.
Entrepreneurship
I'm building multiple ventures across industries I genuinely care about. I'm involved in every layer of it, from the strategy and branding all the way through to product and execution.
Speaking & Mentoring
Giving back is a big part of who I am. I speak at events, mentor young people getting into tech, and try to be the person I needed when I was starting out. This work really matters to me.
Currently Building
I'm founding ventures at the intersection of the things I care about most. These brands are in the works, more to come soon.
Fashion
Building a brand rooted in identity, culture, and self-expression.
Coming SoonFood
Good food brings people together. That's the whole idea.
