👋

Hi — I’m a Japan‑born, LA‑based design engineer who spends equal time shaping pixels and shipping code, forever jetting back to Japan for fresh sushi, sharper ideas, and a constantly evolving playlist.

• Born and raised in Japan — that cultural backbone still guides my craft and aesthetic
• Now in Los Angeles, fusing West‑Coast tech energy with Japanese attention to detail
• Frequent flyer to Japan; “travel” is really just my built‑in inspiration (and sushi) refill
• Career kicked off in Product Design, expanded into Software Engineering—now fluent in both, bridging disciplines every day
• Whiteboard addict: obsessive diagramming is my secret weapon for crystal‑clear conceptual thinking
• Soundtrack on loop: lo‑fi beats, classic jazz, ’80s/’90s J‑pop, and a healthy dose of classical music—diverse tunes for every flow state
