"Focusing on the essence, shaping stories that resonate" Hello, I’m Toshie. With over 20 years of experience as an Art Director and Graphic Designer in Tokyo, I am now based in Toronto. I have worked across fashion, lifestyle, food, and retail, but what truly drives me is uncovering hidden value and transforming it into design that resonates and stays memorable. What I keep in mind ✔︎ Clear and open communication with clients ✔︎ Empathetic design from both client and audience perspectives ✔︎ Responding within 24 hours for smooth collaboration ✔︎ Building long-term, reliable partnerships ✔︎ Quick Responses & Reliable I don’t just complete tasks. I discover the stories behind them. Sometimes that means adding a touch of playfulness, creating designs that not only work but also invite people to engage and remember.
