Born in Shibuya, Tokyo, with an academic background in bioengineering.

After building a career as a designer, programmer, and creative director, served as a business lead at Design Festa, one of Asia’s largest art events, overseeing operations and organizational development during a period of significant growth.

In 2017, launched ARATAMA 璞 as an independent practice. Working across digital strategy, product development, new business creation, UI/UX design, and digital marketing, has supported companies and ventures from early-stage concept and structural design through implementation and ongoing operations.
Contributed to the launch of multiple new ventures and digital initiatives, helping turn ideas into practical systems and viable businesses.

Since 2020, has led digital-driven initiatives across media, product, and organizational development.

In 2022, expanded into Web3, NFTs, and generative AI, working across PdM, PdMO, and BizDev roles to connect emerging technologies with real-world businesses and projects.

In 2023, launched aratama 璞 as both an artist identity and a generative AI art project. The practice spans visual art, character creation, IP, music, animation, and film, encompassing AI art, AI animation, and AI-generated moving-image works. Through international competitions, film festivals, exhibitions, art battles, workshops, and research initiatives, the project explores new forms of expression and creative production for the AI-native era.

In 2024, founded AI Creators, a practice-led platform connecting companies, researchers, and AI creators.
Working across strategy, production, technology, and business development, the platform is building a sustainable AI creative ecosystem in which creativity and execution—and artistic expression and economic value—reinforce one another.

In 2026, delivered an AIVDJ performance featuring original AI-generated works at Hypergeek #14, an immersive audiovisual event. The performance extended AI-based expression beyond standalone works into a live experience shaped by real-time visuals, spatial direction, and embodied presence.

On July 19, 2026, incorporated ARATAMA璞 Co., Ltd. in Tokyo.
The company operates AI Creators and provides artist management.
