“In this world gripped by natural disasters and conflict, people come to Hiroshima from every nation seeking answers on how to rebuild and persevere. We have a responsibility to warn the world of the catastrophe ahead, and to shine our light on a better path. We owe it to the victims who came before, and to the future generations who will inherit what we create today.”

If you want your content written well and delivered on time—you’ve come to the right place.
I’ve written articles for the Japan Times and Make a Living Writing, among others.
My work also includes copywriting for print and web, including case studies, white papers, sales pages, advertisements, newsletters, email marketing, company histories, mission statements, product descriptions, process descriptions, blog posts, and more.
Japan Times – Article “Keeping the Lesson of Hiroshima Alive Through One Family’s Story”
“I must have looked crazy,” laughs Amano, “driving a cab through downtown Tokyo and shouting, ‘Papa!!!’ with tears in my eyes.”
Japan Times – Article “60 years after Sadako Sasaki’s death, the story behind Hiroshima’s paper cranes is still unfolding”
“They called us the ‘ragged class,’” recalls Tomiko Kawano of her sixth-grade group at Noboricho Elementary School in Hiroshima. “Half our class had lost family in the atomic bombing or were survivors themselves.”
Deep Kure – Bilingual Multisite, Photography, Writing, Editing, and Content Strategy
“Kure is a port and major shipbuilding city located on the Seto Inland Sea in Hiroshima Prefecture. However, much of Kure’s rich history and unique culture lies hidden below the surface of its maritime image.”
Setouchi Reflection Trip – Article “Kibitsu-jinja Shrine – Interview with a Demon”
“When asked what foods the gods like best, Uenishi replies thoughtfully. “We make food for the Kamisama every day, but we don’t really know what foods gods like. So we cook what we think tastes great — that’s the best hospitality for a god.” The continuation of this ancient ritual is one of the reasons Kibitsu-jinja Shrine maintains its traditional kitchen. That, and the severed demon’s head buried under the stove.”
Setouchi Reflection Trip – Article “Hiroshima MOCA – Japan’s First Public Museum of Contemporary Art”
“Scanning my eyes over the modern metropolis below, I envision the broken nothingness from which it arose, and consider in turn the countless artists all over the world who, through their creations, continue to lend an immortal voice to the “Spirit of Hiroshima.” But perhaps I shouldn’t be so surprised at the towers which now crowd the once empty space. For after all, nature abhors a vacuum — and art a blank canvas.”
