My name is Kairi Mano, and I am an aspiring creative in Houston, Texas, currently working as a Live Content Creator for Major League Baseball. Originally from Tokyo, Japan. I am a rising senior at Rice University, majoring in Sports Management with minors in Statistics and Data Science.
My work focuses on photography, videography, and video editing, with a passion for capturing both the energy of competition and the quieter moments that make sports memorable.
In addition to my role with MLB, I serve as a Sports Photographer for the Rice Thresher, where I help produce visual content that highlights the stories behind the athletes and the teams.
I also work as a Freelance photographer and videographer and am trusted by brands and athletes like Noah Lyles, SUBWAY, VKTRY, the University of Alabama, the University of Houston, and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, with previous experience also as a Creative Assistant for Rice Athletics. I take pride in exceeding expectations and creating work that leaves a lasting impression. Whether on the field or behind the scenes, my goal is to deliver creative work that resonates long after the moment has passed.
