About

Hello! I am a Japanese illustrator living and working in New Zealand.

After earning a non-art-related degree and working at an ad agency in Tokyo, I decided to explore the possibility of turning what I love into a career. I soon moved to England to study illustration at Falmouth University, and since then I’ve been creating artwork for magazines, books, stationery, and a variety of other projects.

I currently live in a semi-countryside suburb with my partner and our children.
