Born and raised in Los Angeles, I spent summers visiting relatives in Japan and the differences in American and Japanese lifestyles and conveniences stimulated my interest in design. To expand my scope, I studied Danish design in Copenhagen in 2011 and developed my enthusiasm for 'the everyday' in interior design, product design, urban planning, and community development. My degree in "International Literary & Visual Studies" at Tufts University allowed me to explore the U.S., Japan, and Denmark through the frame of design and cultural studies and to complete a thesis on "timelessness" in Japanese and Danish design.
