About Me

I’m a travel journalist based in Tokyo, Japan, where I’ve lived for several years and traveled through 37 of the country’s 47 prefectures to date. I focus on uncovering lesser-known places, cultural traditions, forgotten history, and everyday stories that often go untold—from Tottori's sand dunes, to quiet shotengai hidden away in Sugamo (aka "Grandma's Harajuku"), and remote islands like Yakushima. With a deep curiosity and a background in international travel, I aim to connect readers to the rich, regional diversity of Japan—beyond the typical tourist trail.

My Services

In addition to my work as a writer, I bring a strong background in photography, videography, and editing, offering a well-rounded creative skill set for visual storytelling. Whether it’s crafting compelling narratives, capturing striking images, producing dynamic video content, or refining projects through post-production, I provide end-to-end support to help bring ideas to life across multiple media platforms.

I’ve also spent the past few years producing content for a YouTube channel, where I’ve developed hands-on experience in script writing, editing, and managing visual media. I’m proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and Lightroom.
