Hello! I'm Izzy, your designer and professional hype girl.


Growing up in a family of entrepreneurs, I saw firsthand the passion, resilience, and determination it takes to build something from the ground up. I also saw how small businesses bring people together, create opportunities, and strengthen the communities around them.


Those experiences inspired me to start Izzy's Design Desk and dedicate my work to helping business owners share what they do with more people.

A Little About Me

I'm a hapa girl from Honolulu, HI, now based in Southern California. I'm deeply influenced by my Okinawan/Japanese heritage, and I love exchanging culture and traditions with my friends and family.


When I’m not behind the desk, I’m either cooking something I saw on TikTok, lost in a novel (preferably historical fiction or fantasy), or invested in a reality TV show (I know quite a bit of 90-Day Fiancé lore).


As you can tell, I'm a total home-body. But if you tempt me with a picnic, a thrift store/flea market, a movie date, or food of any kind, I'll be running out the door!


I also love music! My current top-five faves are alt-J (always #1), Linkin Park, Goldie Boutilier, Empire of the Sun, and LP. Catch me listening to them while I'm working on your projects!
