I've been in Japan since 2007 and have been running a performance marketing agency here since 2009. My educational background is in brand and graphic design and my love for art started when I was little--with my first published design work happening when I was 10 (still not sure how I pulled that off). I advocate passionately for great customer service, and doing right on people. I'm pretty optimistic that my own success will follow behind ensuring the success of others first. I also like good beer, scotch, and gin. :) Other pleasures include post rock music, playing guitar, chocolate, and coffee.
