I’m an undergraduate student in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Tokyo.

My primary research interest lies in computer architecture, with a focus on achieving high performance in computing systems through holistic approaches such as software-hardware co-design. I am especially interested in areas including systems for machine learning and heterogeneous computing.

I aim to pursue a Ph.D. in electrical engineering / computer science in the US beginning in Fall 2026.
