ABOUT

Tokyo-raised creative with a multidisciplinary practice spanning illustration, art direction, brand identity, and animation. I work at the intersection of storytelling and visual world-building—designing the aesthetic logic behind a project as much as its execution. Currently freelancing across Tokyo, Paris and Boston, seeking a junior creative role in fashion, automotive, or luxury lifestyle.
