Utilizing IT technology,
in a world where everyone can have dreams

Each person has a dream and a future he envisions. I think of all of those dreams as valuable and precious, regardless of the success or failure of their realizations. And isn't having them indispensable for the happiness of people?
However, now, not everyone has that feeling. Conflict, poverty, educational disparity, inequality of opportunity, destruction of the natural environment. Culture, politics, social structure... The causes are many, and there are countless problems to be solved.
We want to refine our skills and be involved in confronting and solving those problems.
I want to build a society where everyone can have dreams and hopes in any situation. I would be very happy if you too could contribute to that.

Boyhood

Born in 1976 in Omiya City, Saitama Prefecture (currently Saitama City).
After that, he moved to his mother's hometown of Akita Prefecture, where he grew up in a relaxing environment surrounded by nature.
When I was in elementary school, the Famicom was released, and people didn't buy it right away, so I had no choice but to make my own role-playing games with pen and paper.
It eased the pain of the one-hour-a-day Famicom rule that most families had, and created a place for boys to relax.
He had a very boring personality, and no matter what he did, it never lasted long, and he always seemed like his heart wasn't in his place.

A step towards becoming an IT engineer

After graduating from high school, he entered the university's Faculty of Engineering and learned the basics of IT technology.
After graduating from university, I worked at a medical system development company and had the opportunity to be involved in system development at hospitals all over the country.
After 5 years of career, I left my job to pursue a new dream.

Design and then IT engineer again

After developing a passion for furniture making, he entered a design school in Meguro, Tokyo to learn more about design.
It took me two years to graduate while working as an IT engineer again.

Around the same time, he established a system development company and took on a new challenge.

...

When I look back on it, it seems that my curious and easily bored nature has not changed since I was a child, and I feel that I have always lived a restless life, always seeking new and more interesting things.
However, if you change your perspective, the world is always full of new discoveries and learning, and the possibilities for exploring the unknown are endless.
I will continue to make further efforts and detours so that I can enjoy change and challenges while identifying and confronting issues, growing our company, and contributing to society.
I am looking forward to meeting new people and experiencing new things.
