Step 3: Backed by a strong team now able to focus on big branding concepts, communication strategies and gaining a deeper understanding of client needs. 3 years remote working from London gave me a chance to get a new perspective on creativity and now I'm back in Tokyo I can put that to use here alongside our growing team.

Step 1: Three years learning the ropes of the Tokyo design industry figuring out Japanese on the go. First designer to be employed. Lots of work through the big ad agencies, late nights, tight deadlines, confusion, cursing. Learnt a load.
