Daisuke Wakabayashi, who has covered Apple for the past three years at The Wall Street Journal, is leaving the paper.
On Twitter, he wrote, “It’s been a blast covering Apple! I hope to resurface in the not-so-distant future.”
Before covering Apple, Wakabayashi worked for the Journal in its Tokyo bureau, covering everything from the restructuring at Japan’s struggling electronics firms, to Nintendo’s attempts to stay relevant in a changing industry, to billionaire entrepreneur Masayoshi Son’s audacious bid to crack the U.S. telecom market.
Wakabayashi joined the Journal in 2008 in Tokyo after starting his career in 1999 at Reuters, where he worked in Tokyo, Boston and Seattle. In Seattle, he covered Microsoft.
He is a graduate of the College of Holy Cross.
