I'm a UX Designer based in Tokyo with a unique background spanning both design and development. Starting as a programmer, I transitioned into UX design — giving me deep empathy for both users and the engineers building products.
Currently a Lead Designer at PERSOL CAREER, I previously worked as a contract UX Designer at Amazon Japan (via Aquent LLC) for 10 years, leading UX for 35+ projects including seasonal campaigns, category page redesigns, and service pages — always grounding decisions in quantitative data and user research.
