Hi! Hows it going?! :D

So a little about me...
I'm the kinda guy who values experiences over material things, and yet I'm a product designer, which sound contradictory... lol but hear me out.
As a designer I focus on quality and creating something thought out and valuable to the user. I design things that could enhance your experience.

That being said, my passions are design, travel, entrepreneurship, and sharing life changing experiences with others.

I was born in Japan (I'm a happa!) but moved to America with my whole family when I was 7 and so I like to say I got the best of both worlds and my love of traveling started from a young age.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find traveling to be one of the best things one can do in their life time. Not only does it open your mind to different cultures and points of view, it is also the quickest and best way to get to know yourself and your passions.

And I love hearing people's stories about their passions and experiences.
