Date of Birth: 1994/12/1 Height: 190.5cm Resident of Shiga Prefecture “Psychological Illustrator” An artist skilled in illustration using psychology. Appointed as a public relations ambassador for Koka City, Shiga Prefecture.

Born in Shigaraki Town, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture, known for its Rokko kiln Shigaraki pottery, I played with clay since I was a child. I started playing baseball in the second grade of elementary school influenced by my two older brothers. Later, I advanced to high school and university on a sports scholarship and joined the baseball team, eventually being scouted to play for a corporate team in Nagoya, where I played for two and a half years before retiring at 24 and starting my career as a freelance illustrator. My interest in illustration began in my third year of middle school when my eldest brother, who was attending art school at the time (now the fourth generation of our family pottery business), taught me how to draw faces, which led me to immerse myself in creative activities.

I became interested in psychology during the winter of my 23rd year when I faced mental pain due to a deteriorating work environment and a breakup. I stumbled upon psychology-related YouTube videos, which sparked a realization that allowed me to review the events of my life, giving me a strong sense of stimulation as my life began to improve. I have since taken up gathering knowledge in psychology as a hobby. Based on that knowledge, I focus on my YouTube channel, utilizing skills in public speaking, education, and counseling. With these roots as my tools, I engage in activities that are not confined to any specific title.
