About Me

I have dedicated myself, my passion to creating websites and web related graphics.

Designing clean and well-organized web sites. Not only "LOOKING-GOOD" designs, also easy to navigate, "GET LOST" stress-free and "MAKE SENSE" structure designs. I always listen to clients' needs and execute them in the best way.

What Brought Me to the US

After having worked in Japan, I decided to come to US to gain more skills and knowledge in the internet field. I was thinking of becoming a translator/technical writer back then, and started taking classes in the multimedia school in San Francisco 2002.

How I Started Designing

"I'm not good at drawing or creating things. That's not my thing." That's how I feel about designing. That's why I put myself in the programming course at school. Better or worse, the programming course was discontinued and I had to take another course. And what caught my eyes was "Information Design". I learned how to organize information effectively, how people would see the information not only in the web sites, but also in daily life. Logical thinking… I thought "I like it, NO, I LOVE IT!" Since then, when I see things, I've always paid attention to where people's eyes go, how people read and feel.
