Founders

Adela Chang

Founder

Co-founder at KiraKira Media Inc., musician, and published webtoon writer. Prior to Azuki, I worked as senior mobile developer at companies such as Crunchyroll, Yelp, Medium, and Facebook. Graduated in 2014 from U.C. Berkeley with a B.A. in Computer Science and minor in East Asian Languages and Cultures (specifically Japanese and Korean).

Ken Urata

Founder

Co-founder of KiraKira Media, Inc., working on Azuki: Your Digital Manga Cafe. My prior work experience include Software Engineer at Crunchyroll and Thumbtack, and English to Japanese translator (native level in both languages). On the side, I operate a bilingual manga analytics website.

Abbas Jaffery

Founder

I've worked across a variety of fields in my career including community management, quality assurance, backend engineering, product management, and now CEO of KiraKira Media. So I'm a bit of a jack of all trades which allows me to have a good understanding of how different types of systems work with each other and how to work in non-dev roles. In my personal life I'm a cat person with 2 of my own, a fan of anime/manga/film/games, non-alcoholic by choice, and like to go to comedy shows.

Krystyn Neisess

Founder

Co-founder and passionate Android developer for KiraKira Media Inc. I'm primarily responsible for anything and everything Android dev and social media; I also assist with design and marketing efforts. I'm very bubbly and excitable, but don't let that fool you! Beneath that is a highly ambitious and industrious spirit.
