A bit more about myself

My design journey began in the bustling city of Tokyo, where I honed my skills in visual design. Along the way, I dove into the world of coding and UI engineering, teaching myself the ropes. There's something magical about bringing static designs to life and making them interactive—I can't help but feel a spark of pride every time. 🤩

The adventure didn't stop there. I've been fortunate to split my time between Tokyo and Seattle, immersing myself in the Japanese and American markets. This experience has been eye-opening, revealing how design transcends language, history, and culture to find unique and shared paths in different locales. 🇯🇵 🇺🇸

I am also rooted in two specialties: visual design and front-end development. This unique blend allows me to harmonize creativity with technical expertise. I'm passionate about diving into new technologies, refining design approaches, and adhering to best practices for web accessibility. Equally, I love to innovate and simplify, whether streamlining work processes or embracing the joyful chaos with my three kiddos (yep, two of them are twins!). 💪
Three young children are seated at a wooden table, each working on coloring activities with dot stickers. The table is set in a brightly lit room with large windows in the background. A collection of painting supplies and painted rocks are spread out on a wooden table outdoors. There are trays containing rocks painted in different colors, a palette with various paints and brushes, and a set of oil pastels.
