About

DESIGNER → FULLSTACK ENGINEER

Thoughtful design,
made real with code.

I'm a full-stack engineer based in Japan. After working in web design, I expanded into software development so I could bring the experiences I design to life more directly.

I approach product development from both design and implementation perspectives, with a focus on creating clear and intuitive interfaces.
