Born 1976 in Tokyo.

Studied at San Francisco Art Institute / Photography Major with Linda Connor as a mentor.

Now, working as a Tokyo-based fine art photographer showing works internationally.

With 8x10" camera and Gelatin Silver / Wet plate collodion, the theme for my art is to "capture the invisible."
