After working for 3 years as an industrial designer at N+P Industrial Design, I graduated with a Double Degree Master from Köln International School of Design in Germany (Master of Arts) and Chiba University in Japan (Master of Engineering). My research focused on how national culture is influencing the adoption and development of smart home products and discovered six key insights about the smart home market in Japan. By integrating this cross-cultural knowledge into my expertise as a product designer, I aim to reveal the hidden dimension of culture of IoT products and look forward to working with visionary companies to make meaningful IoT products and services.
