PROFILE

About

I'm a graphic designer and programmer living in Yokohama. I studied graphic design at Niagara College in Canada: branding, editorial and print, motion, and UI/UX. I also do 3D modelling and pixel art, and I've been programming since 2021: Python back ends, web apps in Next.js, games in Godot, and AI tools.

I like projects that need both halves: the look and the logic. I make my own games end to end (art, code, trailer), I'm building GlyphOCR, an OCR and translation product, and ザキCards, a flashcard app for OLED screens. I want to keep building products and, one day, a company of my own.

I speak English and Hindi, I'm studying Japanese every day (N3 level), and I know un poquito de español. I'm open to part-time design and programming work now, and full-time roles with visa sponsorship.
