- I assumed the position of Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, School of Science and Technology, Meiji University, effective April 1, 2026.

- I was awarded the degree of Doctor of Engineering at the 2025 Tokyo University of Science Graduation Ceremony, held at Nippon Budokan on Friday, March 20, 2026.

- Prior to completing my doctoral program, I received the Graduate Research Encouragement Award from the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan (JSAE).
Research Themes
Study of super- and subcritical turbulent transition phenomena and heat transfer in wall-bounded shear flows, especially in combined shear flows with multiple orthogonal mainstreams.
- Localized turbulence patterns and instabilities in Taylor–Couette–Poiseuille flow.
- Turbulent transition process and heat transfer of natural convection in vertical channel flow.
- Turbulent transition process and heat transfer of mixed convection in vertical channel flow.
Societies
Interests
- Turbulence, turbulent transition
- Nonlinear dynamical systems, stability theory and its application to turbulent transition
- Typographical systems such as $\TeX/\LaTeX$
