I was born in Tokyo and now live in Budapest, Hungary.
I'm a senior product designer at Formlabs, where I work on software that makes professional-grade 3D printing more intuitive. Previously, I worked at Autodesk, LEGO, Shapr3D and Electronic Arts.
I care about the full picture: how something looks, how it works, how it feels on the first use and the thousandth. I'm drawn to complexity that rewards patience: hardware-adjacent flows, emerging workflows, and the small details that separate good from exceptional.
My approach is simple: do less, but better than everyone else.
