I'm an American designer / musician living in Tokyo since 2001.

I shoot with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX07, a Nikon D70s, and my Sony-Ericsson mobile phone. I haven't figured out how to use a flash well, and like single-source-of-light photos.

Most of my photos are Creative Commons licensed. If you use one, send me a link!

I co-founded AQ, a Tokyo-based multi-lingual web and graphic design office.

I play keyboards for dryfishbutterfly, a Japanese instrumental rock band.

I volunteer at Tokyo Art Beat, helping with interface design and writing.

I co-created Hitotoki, a literary site mapping narratives across Tokyo.

I write about design, japan, and other things at iixii.
