Born in 1988 in Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture, I was inspired by my father, a traditional Japanese chef, and learned cooking fundamentals early at my family’s restaurant. After graduating from Senshu University’s Faculty of Law, I worked in sales at Nippon Shokken Co., Ltd., then as a restaurant manager, before completing a professional food coordinator program and starting my career as an independent culinary expert. I hold nine food-related qualifications, including Professional Chef’s License, Sake Sommelier (Kikisake-shi), Certified Sommelier (ANSA), and Vegetable Sommelier, and was the youngest to earn the advanced title of Certified Lecturer in Sake Studies. While rooted in Japanese cuisine that highlights natural flavors, my repertoire spans ethnic, Italian, and organic dishes. In 2015, I joined a project by Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and JICA, promoting Japanese cuisine domestically and in countries such as France, Paraguay, Bangladesh, and Serbia. A passionate triathlete, I have achieved top finishes in domestic competitions, won my age group at the 2018 Tomonoura Triathlon, and represented Japan at the Age Group World Championships in Australia (2018) and Switzerland (2019). Known as “the running chef,” I collaborate with sports brands and health media, advocating the integration of food, health, and sports. Since 2020, I have served as Official Athlete Food Coach for the Japan Para Table Tennis National Team, supporting athletes’ nutrition. In 2022, I became a father and now balance parenthood with my culinary and athletic careers.
