Tsukuba, Japan
I am a graphic designer who was born and raised in the coastal area of northern Japan. I attribute my creative roots from living around the beautiful city there. In my career I’ve had the privilege to work in many different industries and for clients such as travel agencies , design agencies, IT companies, non-profits, and private clients. I usually use adobe suite products like Indesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I love exploring new styles and techniques to suit the clients needs. I’m a digital nomad at the moment and have been country hopping since 2015. I’m obsessed with seeing new and exciting locations and exploring nature across the world. I love to meet new people with different experiences from my own and it can have an influence on my design and give me new perspectives. Portfolio: shinyagraphics.myportfolio.com
