My current job

I am involved in the planning and management of exhibitions held at art galleries and museums. We prepare fpr exhibitions by discussing the genre, themes, exhibition methods, publicity, events, and management with all parties involved. I hope to create exhibitions that convey the appeal of the works and artists and leave a lasting impression on visitors.

How I spent my student life

When I first entered Geiko, I was interested in creating things with my own hands. As I participated in multiple team projects from my fourth year of undergraduate school until graduate school, I began to think that I might be suited to managing the progress of projects while coordinating and cooperating with others around me. Around the same time, I also started a part-time job working on exhibitions. I think that the experiences and encounters I had back then are connected, and have shaped me into the person I am today.

Messages for prospective students

Although I am not a designer in my current position, I am able to use what I learned about design at Geiko broadly and in depth in my work. Please try to take action and move without hesitation in the direction you are interested in. I believe these experiences will lead to your future.
