About
I’m a mid-level UI/UX and web designer based in Tokyo, Japan, passionate about creating intuitive and visually compelling user experiences. With a strong foundation in user-centered design principles and a keen eye for detail, I specialize in designing responsive interfaces that balance usability and aesthetics. I’m motivated by projects that blend creativity with functionality, and I thrive in collaborative environments where design decisions are backed by real user feedback.
