Information

Hello! I'm an illustrator and designer based in Kyoto, Japan. I studied design/illustration at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena. After spending 5 years in LA, came back to Kyoto where I grew up. 

When I'm not working on design stuff, I usually cook and eat different kinds of noodles (ramen, spaghetti, soba noodles, dan dan noodles, you name it!). I'm currently trying to regularly update my Google map to document the noodle restaurants I've ever been to. 

You have something fun? LET'S WORK TOGETHER
