I began my career in photography in 2015. As a bicultural Japanese-Canadian born in Japan I am perceived as an outsider in my own culture. This aspect of being native to my home country but never truly belonging is at the core of my projects that explore everyday life in Japan.
Among my career highlights to date, I am a Critical Mass Top 50 winner, a Paris Photo Prize 2nd place winner in Fine Art, and have works in the collections of the Detroit Center for Contemporary Photography, the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, and the Australian Museum of Contemporary Photography.
