「デザインとテクノロジーで、最高のユーザ体験を届けたい。」
Master's student at Nagasaki University, Setozaki Lab. Researching generative AI and spatial computing. I work end-to-end: design, frontend, backend, and infrastructure — across research prototypes, hackathons, and production systems.
Outside research: founded ChoTech, a student-engineer community in Nagasaki; teach programming to learners from elementary through high school; and join exchange / research programs abroad (Thailand, India).
- 🔬 Master's research — building a communication-augmentation platform that fuses generative AI with spatial computing at Setozaki Lab.
- 🛠 Shipping tecnova-platform — a Turborepo monorepo (Hono on Cloudflare Workers + D1, Next.js 16, Better Auth, Drizzle) running operations for tec-nova Nagasaki, a creative-fabrication program for children at Nagasaki Univ.
- 🌱 Growing ChoTech — Nagasaki's student-engineer community, now an officially recognized university club.
