Takashi Matsuyama (@takashimatsuyama) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I am a director of two companies. One is IT, and the other is Art.
For IT, we provide expert WordPress solutions and customized data management systems. For Art, we run a contemporary art gallery and publish limited edition prints.

Career: Japanese chef → Graphic designer → Web designer → Programmer → Founder and CEO (current)

I began my career as a traditional Japanese chef, then transitioned through graphic design, web design, and programming.
Today, I work as a business owner, external director, and consultant—combining craftsmanship, programmer’s logic, and business insight to create across disciplines.

Since 2006, I’ve worked with web technologies, and in 2013, I founded a company focused on custom web apps and business systems.
I’ve built RDB- and API-integrated tools for product, inventory, sales, and customer management to help clients streamline operations and manage information effectively.

I’m also active in WordPress development—websites, e-commerce, plugins—alongside remote tech support and consulting.
I contribute to both backend development and management while supporting design direction and AWS-based infrastructure.

In recent years, I’ve developed data-driven systems using NLP, machine learning, and deep learning with Python, JavaScript, PHP, and SQL.
The release of ChatGPT marked a major shift.
In early 2023, I paused AI work to return to the “one source, multi-use” approach, building systems rooted in relational databases.

This shift also changed my lifestyle.
I renovated a house into a shop, began roasting coffee, and returned to cooking with my hands.
These experiences helped me reconnect with the value of physical, creative work.

As AI-driven efficiency accelerates, I’ve been rethinking how to live meaningfully—not just through productivity or profit, but through emotional richness and cultural practice.
By moving between tech and manual work, logic and sensibility, I aim to foster values grounded in everyday life.

In November 2024, I rejoined the board of a publishing company specializing in contemporary art editions.
I resumed work on exhibitions, sales, and corporate art consulting—reconnecting art and business.

In April 2025, I opened Nima Store / Kitchen & Art Café near Osaka Castle.
We serve espresso-style coffee brewed from house-roasted beans, offer creative food, and exhibit and sell contemporary prints—mainly editions from the publisher I serve as director.
Our goal is to bring richness to daily life through a space where food and art meet.

As a WordPress contributor, I develop and publish plugins and support the community via user forums.

Looking ahead, I work with technology to realize contemporary cultural experiences.
