Experienced Multicultural Game Designer
Game Designer with over a decade of experience across indie projects, fan games, and Japanese AAA development. Currently at Arc System Works in Japan, specializing in battle planning and camera systems. Over the past two years, I’ve taken on leadership responsibilities; mentoring designers, optimizing workflows with tools like Jira and spreadsheets, and collaborating across disciplines to align creative vision with technical and production constraints. Previously developed Mega Man X Street Fighter (2012), a widely acclaimed fan game officially supported by Capcom. Passionate about action games and deeply inspired by Japanese mythology, I’m eager to bring that energy to bold, stylized projects like those at Unseen.
