Stanley Park (Vancouver, Canada)

Hi, I'm Akira

I’m a disappointment to humanity who thinks sightseeing is optional when traveling.

Biography

I was born in Tokyo, Japan, and moved to the U.S. when I was 5 years old.

I lived in Beverly Hills, CA until graduating high school, and attended UCLA and graduated with a B.S. and M.S. in Materials Science and Engineering.

I met my partner, my literal goddess, at UCLA and we have been together since.

We are currently in the Chicago area. We both like travelling, so we travel whenever work permits.
