My Adventure as a UI Designer: From Tokyo, Japan to Vancouver, BC (Nov 2014 — Feb 2015)

In Fall 2014, after working as a junior product designer in Tokyo, Japan for 1 year, I decided to move to Vancouver, BC for new challenges. Here are the tweets summarizing what I’ve been doing since then.

In general, I’ve been improving my English and JavaScript skills, working on open source projects, podcasting, and attending (or speaking) at local tech/startup events. I also recently started looking for a job in UI design/development. If you’re interested, check out my portfolio page here.
