Born in Kagawa Prefecture in 1970. After studying at the Bizen Ceramics Center, apprenticed under Nariyoshi Morioka. In 1997, built an anagama kiln in Kagawa Prefecture and began producing Nanban yakishime ware, then relocated to Kagawa again in 2016. Working with both an anagama and a downdraft wood-firing kiln, all pieces are fired with wood. Creating everyday vessels, tea ware, and flower vases centered on yakishime, hakuji, and kohiki techniques, the work is defined by graceful silhouettes and the tactile quality of the clay.
