Born in Osaka in 1981. After graduating from university, moved to New York to pursue further studies in the medical field, where an encounter with art led to attending an art school as a hobby. This experience inspired a deeper commitment to art, leading to formal study in painting at a graduate art school in Chicago. Currently based in the Kansai region of Japan, continuing artistic practice while balancing work in the medical field and family life, creating works that reflect the nuances of everyday life.
