Helping school psychologists start reports earlier and work more efficiently
I’m Mari,
a product designer.
I’m a product designer based in San Francisco.
I solve real problems for real people through thoughtful design.
Originally from Japan, I approach design through the lens of Japanese minimalism: add only what's necessary, remove the rest. This philosophy shapes my work by simplifying complex workflows, designing intuitive experiences, and solving problems that matter.
I focus on removing friction, clarifying complexity, and ensuring every element serves a purpose. Based in San Francisco, I thrive in cross-functional teams and bring projects from concept to launch with empathy and precision.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me swimming in open water, learning bocce, practicing tea ceremony, seeking out independent films and live performances, or planning my next spontaneous trip.
