About Me

Aloha!

I'm John, a Hawaii-born graphic designer fueled by island life and creativity.


My journey started with childhood sketches, led to art school, and blossomed into 20+ years in advertising and marketing. I've collaborated on campaigns for brands like Burger King, KFC, Wet 'n' Wild, and the Honolulu Symphony, plus heartfelt projects with Make-A-Wish Hawaii and First Assembly of God.


Today, I focus on freelance design, personal art experiments (think shorebreak-inspired resin pours and wood pieces), and sharing glimpses of daily life—from work wins to surf sessions.


Passions beyond the screen: Surfing, hiking hidden trails, photography, golf on flat-wave days, travel for local flavors, and restoring fun rides like my kei truck "Dai-Hot-Tsu."


Got a branding idea, design need, or want to collaborate on something creative? Reach out—I'm always up for good vibes and great projects.

My love for drawing from a young age led me to my career in graphic design. After art school I worked in the advertising and marketing industries for over 20 years and later worked in the non-profit sector.

One of my favorite things about traveling is exploring the local cuisine. I love to try new foods and learn about the culture and history behind them. Check out some of my favorite food experiences from around the world.
