After working six years as a children's clothing designer, I began my career as a computer graphic creator in 1991. I created and produced various CGs for television. I was a CG director for TEO project by FUJITSU LIMITED. I also planned, directed and designed various contents for Fujitsu Labs.

I opened my own office in 2001 in Kobe, Japan and began to create PeKay's application.

I am also a fellow for the NPO, CANVAS whose mission is to promote activities for exploring children's creativity and expression.
