He attended an international school in Malaysia when he was in elementary. He was interested in the free working style and career of the family around him, and at the same time had doubts about Japan's uniform view of career. Immediately before the founding of Drafty, Inc., it was necessary to choose a work method. He saw that the remote work of the people around him did not proceed smoothly due to the covid-19 disaster and they were forced to take leave. He founded Drafty, Inc. and became CEO.

When he met Kido during his internship, he felt a strong sympathy for the sense of challenge for remote work, founded Drafty, Inc., and became COO of the board.
