Born in Ichikawa-shi, Chiba-ken, he grew up between Japan and Brazil — experiences that profoundly shaped his worldview and creativity. His tattoo style is traditional, focusing on clean lines, balanced composition, and a deep respect for the story behind each design.

He sees tattooing as both an art form and a way to tell personal stories. Each project is created with meticulous attention to detail and a sincere respect for the individuality of every client. To him, tattooing is an exchange: a meaningful dialogue between the artist and the person who will carry the art on their skin.
