Hola!
coffee • music • design
I'm Chris Mejia.
An experienced freelance front-end web developer and graphic designer, 25+ years in. In that time, I also spent a few years working in film and television production, where long studio hours turned me into a lifelong coffee fanatic. No complaints. Best souvenir ever.
These days I live in Japan. While studying the language and writing the next chapter of my life, I've picked my camera back up again. Photography is how I put my design eye to work, and Japan is a ridiculously good place to practice. Take a look at a selection of my favorite photos on my photo page.
I have been collecting vinyl for quite sometime now and Japan has gifted me an endless supply of near-mint used records, found in the large amount of second-hand shops. My collection is growing nicely. If you use Discogs, feel free to add me! Discogs collection.
So what's next?
A small listening café: I have always dreamed of creating a place where you can enjoy a perfectly pulled latte, while listening to vinyl records spinning through the warm sound of a vintage Hi-Fi system, and a place to meet friends to enjoy that good music and coffee. It's a work in progress, and I'll update this page as it takes shape.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I would love to hear from you. Thanks for stopping by!
