I am currently affiliated to Faculty of Urban Environmental Science as Associate Professor at Tokyo Metropolitan University, Japan. I received extensive training in synthetic organic chemistry, photochemistry, and polymer science, and have more than 12 years of research experience and 7 years of university-level teaching experience.

Prior to joining Tokyo Metropolitan University, I was working at RIES, Hokkaido University as assistant professor and at the University of Tokyo as researcher, and maintain active collaborations with both domestic and international research groups. My work aims to bridge molecular design and functional materials with real-world biomedical and technological applications.

My research integrates molecular design, smart materials, and light-responsive systems, contributing to innovations at the interface of chemistry and materials science. The work has resulted in approximately 30 peer-reviewed publications with over 800 citations, along with more than 35 conference presentations, including over 10 invited talks.

Strong commitment to education and mentorship is reflected in contributions to four academic courses and training programs (including two credit-bearing courses) and supervision of nine research students.

Active engagement in scientific outreach includes organizing six science promotion seminars, two science exhibitions, and three international exchange programs that connect students with cutting-edge research environments. In addition, I have served as an organizer for six scientific conferences, fostering collaboration and international academic exchange.

Beyond research and teaching, dedication to community engagement and global academic connectivity remains central to my professional vision. I am married to Dr. Nusaiba M.C., and we are blessed with three children.
