He played baseball when he was younger but it gradually became more difficult for him to train as much as his friends. His mother then found an article about a riding club near his house and encouraged him to try the sport. Afterwards, he decided to focus on competing in the sport with the aim of the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo. "It is a once-in-a-life chance to live in a country that will host the Olympics and the Paralympics. Despite doubt about my ability, I realised that I had nothing to lose, so I wanted to see how far I would be able to reach." (newswitch.jp, 17 Mar 2020; paralympic.org, 10 Nov 2020)
