This person is a member of the executive staff of Palatine Management LLC, the single-family office of Minerva Holdings Chairman Julian Kao.
Tanaka Jun (Japanese: 田中 純, born 3 November 2008), more commonly known as June Emily Tanaka, is a Japanese-American business executive who has been serving as Chief of Staff of the Household Office at Palatine Management LLC, the single-family office of billionaire industrialist and Minerva Holdings Chairman Julian Kao, since 1 February 2034. She is the youngest person ever to be appointed to this role. Prior to this, she served as Deputy Chief of Staff (2033 - 2034) to Maya Manelis. She also previously worked as an Executive Assistant to Kao at Minerva Holdings (2031 - 2033).
Tanaka is widely regarded to be one of Kao's most trusted aides and confidantes. In addition to her duties managing his private household, she has also served as a non-executive director of Chelsea Football Club since July 2034 and the Gramercy Park Hotel since September 2034. She was also appointed to the investment committee of Belle Haven Ventures in April 2034.
"June is a phenomenal businesswoman with a rare combination of brilliance and amazing people skills. Although she is still very young, she has shown herself to be more than capable of being the ultimate social gatekeeper for one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful men. There is little doubt that she will soon become a force to be reckoned with in her own right."

Born in Hawaii to a Japanese father and a Japanese-American mother, Tanaka has both Japanese and American citizenship, and was raised in both cultures. She spent a significant part of her childhood years in Japan, and has an especially close relationship with her paternal grandmother, who is based in Okinawa.
After graduating from Columbia University in June 2030, Tanaka worked briefly for the international strategy consulting firm McKinsey & Company in New York. She has described her time at McKinsey as "formative" and "eye-opening", most notably because it showed her that there were "serious and inherent deficiencies in the traditional agent-principal relationship", and left her shocked by the "sheer amount of corporate waste created by the professional managerial class simply because of their extreme unwillingness to accept risk or accountability". She has said that her early experiences gave her the motivation to align herself with "the people who sign the checks rather than those who bill by the hour".
