Q: What year did you join the company and why?
Joined in May 2017
I worked with children as a nursery teacher for about 11 years, but I started to want to make wooden toys, which I had always loved, and when I was looking for a wooden toy company, I came across Nakayoshi Library. I fell in love at first sight with the robot on their website, and that was the deciding factor.
Q: What do you do for a living?
He is mainly in charge of production at the Mitoyo Toy Factory, and is responsible for the entire process from sawing to assembly and finishing.
Q: What do you find rewarding?
I feel a sense of accomplishment and joy in working together as a team to achieve our goals and create something. When I see toys reaching children all over the world, receiving warm feedback from customers, and seeing children having fun playing with them, I feel glad that all the hard work was worth it. Also, my idea for "Ghost Memory" was selected for the Good Toy Award in 2024. It's also very rewarding to see an in-house design become a ready-made product.
