Born in Minami-Izu, Shizuoka Prefecture in 1973. He discovered ceramics through a university pottery club and is largely self-taught. In 1997, he built his own kiln and set up an independent studio in Ogawa-machi, Saitama Prefecture, later relocating to Tokigawa-machi, Saitama, where he runs Yudachi-gama. Using Shigaraki clay, he works with a diverse range of glazes, centering on Oribe but also including瑠璃 (lapis blue), black, and kohiki. His kerosene kiln is self-built. His work is known for its playful designs—such as dot and stripe patterns—combined with a boldness of form, with a strong emphasis on making functional, everyday tableware.
