I am a Brand Designer who helps small businesses and startups build a clear and consistent brand. I support clients by choosing brand colors, writing brand stories, and creating brand guidelines. My goal is to make sure everything\u2014from the website to printed materials\u2014matches the brand\u2019s image and message.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

I also have experience in both web and graphic design. I design websites, flyers, business cards, menus, and presentation materials. My design style is simple, clean, and easy to understand. I focus on making things look professional and work well for users. I\u2019ve been working as a freelancer for over 10 years and always take full responsibility for each project.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Before becoming a freelancer, I worked at an IT startup, big corporate to small family-own business where I did many different tasks. I helped with planning, writing proposals, working with system teams, building and running e-commerce sites, supporting customers, and creating manuals and training materials. This experience taught me how to work in fast-moving environments and handle many kinds of tasks.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

I am also a certified business consultant, licensed by the Japanese government. I have knowledge of business strategy and management, and I use this knowledge to support clients in a practical way.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

In short, I offer a mix of design, branding, and business skills. I can help small teams and startups grow by providing flexible and reliable support tailored to their needs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
