My personal site, muripo.com. Focus is on the strange things I find interesting on the internet, with emphasis on Japanese news that doesn’t quite make it internationally due to obscurity.


Complete redesign of the Water Japan website and integration of an ecommerce shop.
Client Request: website was outdated and needed a refresh.
Website: switched from pure HTML to WordPress for easier management and responsive design support.
Ecommerce: transitioned shop from external partner service to inhouse via WooCommerce for more control over pages and to reduce costs. Integrated Amazon Pay so that Amazon customers can use their credentials for easy checkout.
Localization: website is available in Japanese and English (not machine translated).
Software Used: WordPress, Photoshop, Illustrator

Assisted in launching and now manage WBshop.com, which relaunched in March 2012. I’ve had my hands in nearly every corner of the site.
