Born in Tokyo, he graduated at the top of his class from Tokyo University of the Arts and its graduate school. Due to his distinctive character, he has gained popularity not only as a composer but also as a multi-talented individual, including pianist, presenter, illustrator, and shojo manga researcher, with frequent appearances on television and radio. While specializing in vocal works such as opera and choral music, he also has unique piano compositions, including the “Mr. Blue Island” series, known for its light and witty narrative style, and “Mon Père l'Oye” (a play on Ravel's “Ma Mère l'Oye”), based on Japanese folk tales. He is currently a lecturer at Tokyo University of the Arts, Tsuru University, and Tokyo Metropolitan High School of Fine Arts; a board member of the Tokyo Chamber Opera Theatre; and a member of the Japan Society for Contemporary Music and the Composers' Guild of Japan.
