Biography
I am a Ph.D student in Rekimoto Lab at the University of Tokyo, supervised by Prof. Jun Rekimoto. Before that, I obtained M.S. in Interdisciplinary Informatics from the University of Tokyo. Since May 2025, I have been a visiting Ph.D. student in the Sensorimotor Interaction Group at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, supervised by Dr. Paul Strohmeier.

My research interests are in Telepresence and Perception Sharing . During my M.S., I explored using the Hanger Reflex phenomenon to transfer the sensation of head rotation to others. In my Ph.D., I am extending this work by integrating head rotation with other non-verbal communication cues, such as eye-gaze and vibrotactile feedback, to enable more expressive and practical transmission of intention between individuals.
