Born in Japan, Heuishil spent most of her time as a child playing in imaginary worlds through books.
After working as an architect in Tokyo, she moved to the UK and studied resilient society design at the University of Oxford, where she obtained her MPhil and DPhil in Geography and the Environment. In parallel, she passionately studied child development and mental well-being.
Heuishil now enjoys inventing new playful learning resources for children to boost their emotional resilience and creativity using her wide multidisciplinary expertise and design skill.
