What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a product-design role where I can build data-driven prototypes, lead cross-functional design, and explore mixed-reality and GenAI projects in a collaborative, growth-oriented company.

I’m a data-driven product designer and creative technologist based in Tokyo who bridges high-level concepts to deployed products through tangible prototypes and cross-functional leadership. I led product design for CRM and loyalty programs for a multinational brand (1.1M DAU), drove stakeholder alignment, and facilitated design-thinking workshops for teams of 20.

I translate user research into rapid prototypes across transportation, Gen AI, and healthcare—improving a tele-health onboarding conversion by 10% after a focused three-week sprint. I’ve built and maintained design systems, authored a Figma plugin for multilingual app-store screenshots, and developed AR experiences published at SIGGRAPH and EC2020.
