On a personal note
In recent years, I’ve had the great opportunity to participate in international voice awards and connect with colleagues from around the world in Los Angeles. The encounters and learning from that experience ignited a new passion for my craft.
As a former broadcaster, I built my career from my hometown to Tokyo, and now, with my professional home studio, I am able to send my voice all the way to America and Europe.
That desire to connect with the world, which first blossomed during my student years in the US, has now become a priceless part of my life. Today, I connect with clients across the globe through Zoom, building deep and meaningful relationships.
At the same time, I find the true source of my expression in the things I value most: the beauty of Japanese culture and the peaceful moments spent with my family. I believe that the warmth I feel in my daily life—joy, tranquility, and happiness—gives my voice a rich, human depth.
Beyond narration, my work extends to a wide range of fields, including reporting, emceeing for ceremonies and events, and radio personality. I also do voice acting for anime, games, and TV dramas, as well as picture book storytelling and international collaborations with fellow narrators.
I share my daily work and experiences on my podcast and blog. You can find them here.
