I currently hold the position of Senior Researcher at Hitachi America, Ltd. Research & Development Group, where my primary area of focus is the development of computer vision technologies.

I earned my PhD in Computer Science from University of Tsukuba under the esteemed guidance of Prof. Kazuhiro Fukui. My research focused on object and action recognition by leveraging computer vision technologies.

Prior to that, my academic journey led me to the Ikeda Lab, where I studied digital circuit design at The University of Tokyo. Under the guidance of Prof. Makoto Ikeda, I obtained my BE and ME degrees.
