MY PASSION FOR ART & MEDICAL EDUCATION SHINES THROUGH MY WORK.
I'M A PHYSICIAN, DESIGNER AND DIGITAL ARTIST IN TOKYO. MY PASSION FOR MINIMALIST AESTHETICS, ELEGANT TYPOGRAPHY, AND INTUITIVE DESIGN SHINES THROUGH IN MY WORK.
With a lifelong interest for drawing & over 10 years of photography experience, I naturally found my way into industry-standard 3D tools even before entering medical school.
That’s when a whole new world opened up, where art and medicine intersected, from intricate cellular details to full anatomical systems.
As an aspiring pathologist, my appreciation for visuals in medical education deepened. Today, I focus on creating clear, engaging visuals that break down complex concepts, inspire learning, and make medicine more accessible to students around the world.
