About me
UK Based, Born and Raised… Japan Grown!
A little about me…
This is the New Year’s card I sketched for 2021.
I draw.
You name it, I’ll draw it. I like pencil and paper best but recently I have been using Illustrator more.
I wrote and illustrated a short story during the Pandemic.
I write.
I like writing Short Stories and articles.
At one point, I was even learning how to paraglide!
I learn and explore.
From Japanese to Astrology - my interests are diverse and I love to learn new skills or about new topics.

I love doing volunteer work and helping causes close to my heart.
Why UX/UI design?
I am a problem solver.
From my days as a maths undergraduate student to my time as a volunteer founding a beach cleaning initiative in Japan - problem solving has been an integral part of my life!
It’s constantly changing.
With new software releases or updates and a constant flow of emerging techniques and ideas - there are always new things to learn!
I love variety.
From style guides to prototyping to desk research and user interviews. There are many different aspects of UX/UI design.
I am a chatterbox.
UX design allows for collaboration and teamwork - giving me ample chance to talk to a wide variety of people!
I enjoy being creative.
Creativity is the spice of life. Where it is warranted I enjoy solving problems with a little creative flair.
UX/UI design puts people at the heart of decisions.
By taking the user into consideration we create designs which benefit the majority of people.
