Short bio Long bio

I studied Information Design at university, then spent six years as a mechanical design engineer in Tokyo — sand molds for prototypes, casting simulations, strength analyses.

In 2026 I moved to Vancouver to study digital marketing. Now I build websites and content for small businesses and nonprofits.

I studied Information Design at university, then spent six years as a mechanical design engineer in Tokyo. The part I liked most was testing what I had drawn.

In 2026 I moved to Vancouver to study digital marketing. Since then I have built bilingual websites, produced Instagram Reels, and fixed the technical SEO of a nonprofit site.

The work turned out to be the same as engineering. Make something, test it, change what didn’t hold.
