About
Welcome to my blog—a journal and scrapbook for my mind. This is where I document, think out loud, share photos, and reflect.
I’m a creative technologist and photographer living in Japan. Half technical, half artist, I shift focus depending on the day. I love the new—and I’m often distracted by shiny objects.
I enjoy a good coffee and a conversation about philosophy and technology just as much as I do one about art and photography. Politics? Not so much—I mean, like never. 🙂
Most of my life has revolved around Japan, creativity, and technology. I’ve lived here on and off for decades. This site is where those threads come together—a place to share photos, quotes, reflections, and whatever else inspires me.
Which version of me you know probably depends on when our paths crossed. For years, I worked full-time as a commercial and editorial photographer. Before that, I spent nearly a decade as a university web designer and developer. And before that, I was an account manager for a U.S.-based company operating in Japan.
These days, I’m a marketing manager with perhaps an overzealous interest in artificial intelligence and robotics—but I never stray too far from my cameras.
I’ve lived through decades of technological evolution, beginning with my first computer, an original Macintosh, in 1986, which I purchased from my boss when I moved to Tokyo.
Even today, I remain amazed by how technology continues to transform our world—often in ways that still feel like magic to me.
Although I’m proficient in digital marketing and understand modern engagement principles, I’m not enamored with the algorithms driving our world. I do post occasionally on social platforms, but I still prefer the simplicity and control of a personal blog—a space to focus, reflect, and share without chasing the algorithm.
If others find what I write helpful, that’s great. But this is mostly a journal and scrapbook for my mind—a way to document my thoughts and experiences as they unfold.
Everything here—including me—is a work in progress.
My writing will evolve, probably in ways I can’t yet predict—in fact, I’m counting on it.
To good light and moments that matter. ✌️
