Born in Tokyo and raised in Kamakura. Having a dream of crossing the sea by boat when he was a boy, he trained while supporting races, and has been active in numerous yacht racing and adventure races. At the age of 26, he set a record around the world for the youngest single port in history for 176 days. Since then, he has continued to take on the toughest races. In 2007, he participated in the Class 5 of the 1OCEANS, a single-round sailing race around the world, for the first time as an Asian, and achieved second overall.
He has been a leader of the “World Natural Heritage Project for Elementary School Children” for many years, and is actively engaged in activities to convey the importance of nature and “dreams” to children.
