About Me

Hi there! I’m a multi-passionate creative who loves writing, editing, and designing content that inspires and encourages readers.  My current project is a newsletter called Snail Steps, in which I explore the practice of slowing down and creating a meaningful life one step at a time. I’m also the author and designer of the #instanovelette A Fairly Conventional Tale, which is a novelette you can read as an Instagram Story. You can read it via the highlights on my Instagram. A native Texan with Japanese heritage (“Texan-Japanese” for short), I have lived in Japan, England, and Northern California. Now I live in my hometown of Austin, Texas, where I can say “y’all” as much as I want without getting weird looks from people.
