Hi there 👋


A little about me

I’m a product designer at Dropbox where I design cross-cultural experiences for functional, user-friendly apps that are used across the world.
I started my career as a software engineer and then transitioned into product design. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Washington and studied Human Centered Design and Engineering with a focus on Human-Computer Interaction.

I grew up in Japan, China, and the United States. I speak English, Japanese, Mandarin, and understand Shanghainese. I’m always seeking opportunities for integrating my multicultural background and linguistic abilities with my passion for human-computer interaction.

In my spare time, I love traveling the world, enjoying the outdoors, experimenting with new art forms, dancing, and eating my way through the places I visit.
