《About Me》

MESSAGE

Ever since I was little, I was fascinated by American culture. That curiosity led me to study abroad, pursue a career in the U.S., and become a licensed mental health counselor. I spent 11 years living in four different states, meeting incredible people, and experiencing life in a whole new way. It was an amazing journey, and a part of me will always cherish the life I built there.
After moving back to Japan in 2011 and experiencing reverse culture shock, I began to see my home country with fresh eyes. I fell in love with its culture, its people, and the sense of connection it brings. Now, I’m at a point in my life where I want to live authentically—and help others do the same.
Through Thrive Life Design, I support introverts and ambiverts who want to honor their inner world, embrace their creativity, and design a life that truly fits them. Having served international communities in Japan since 2011, I understand the ups and downs of living abroad—the excitement, the challenges, and everything in between.
At the heart of Thrive Life Design are the values that matter most to me—freedom, curiosity, learning, hope, calm, flexibility, creativity, and peace. I believe we all have the power to create meaningful change and thrive in our own way. If you're ready to explore what an authentic, fulfilling life looks like for you—and take meaningful steps toward it—let’s take that journey together!
