summary
In 1970, I was born in Tokyo. I spent my high school years with our CEO. After graduating from Tokyo Gakugei University High School in 1989, I entered Tokyo Medical and Dental University, completing a Master’s degree at the Graduate School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine.
After completing graduate school, I joined a television station, where I worked on producing various programs, ranging from news and information shows to entertainment. I held various positions, including producer. During the time at the station, I took a course in health policy at the University of Tokyo, which inspired me to support families accompanying hospitalised children, who face increasing physical, mental and economic burdens. I worked to improve their environment by providing support in the form of essential “goods, food, and information”, and I helped establish and manage an NPO dedicated to advocating for improvements at both societal and national levels.
Later, with a strong determination to bridge the gap between healthcare and media, as well as to revive the essence of “Showa-era entertainment” in the context of an aging society, I co-founded the company with the CEO, sharing the same vision. I currently serve as Founder and Director, playing a key role in the company’s management.
