I am a Project Assistant Professor the Department of Creative Informatics at the University of Tokyo,
supported by <a href="https://www.riise.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/research_programs/vxe" target="_blank">VXE</a>
and <a href="https://www.jst.go.jp/kisoken/act-x/en/index.html" target="_blank">ACT-X</a>.
My research aims at developing computational design systems for sustainable manufacturing,
focusing on rule-based modeling of 3D geometries and material textures, subtractive manufacturing, and user interface design.
I received my Ph.D. in Information Science and Technology from the University of Tokyo in 2023,
advised by <a href="https://www-ui.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~takeo/" target="_blank">Takeo Igarashi</a>,
and have presented technical papers at international conferences including SIGGRAPH and UIST.
<br><br>
I have an interdisciplinary background spanning technology, design, and humanities.
I worked as an architectural designer with
<a href="https://www.poolarch.ch/" target="_blank">Pool Architekten</a> in Switzerland
and the <a href="https://openddl.com/" target="_blank">Digital Design Lab of Nikken Sekkei</a> in Japan.
I hold an M.Eng. in Architecture from the University of Tokyo and a B.A. in History of Art and Architecture from Harvard University.
