Summary

Versatile and deeply passionate writer with a double major in Art & Design and Media & Communication, completed in Japan through immersive academic training in Nagoya. My background merges creative writing with a sharp understanding of communication strategy, allowing me to craft content that’s not only compelling, but purposeful and brand-aligned. I’ve built 3+ years of professional writing experience, developing impactful content for marketing campaigns, product launches, brand storytelling, advertising materials, blogs, emails, press releases, and scripts. While working at Studio Kairo, a Nagoya-based creative studio, I led content creation efforts that helped shape brand narratives and connect with audiences across digital platforms. Known for my ability to distill complex ideas into clear, emotionally engaging copy, I’m highly adaptable in tone and style—comfortable writing everything from long-form editorial pieces to concise advertising copy. Fluent in English and proficient in Japanese, I bring a cross-cultural perspective, strong research instincts, and an innate storytelling sense to every piece I write.
