The half sen coin (半銭) was a Japanese coin worth one two-hundredth of a Japanese yen, as 100 sen equalled 1 yen. All half sen coins were minted during the Meiji period between 1873 and 1888, and are made from nearly pure copper. These coins were later replaced for a brief time by another coin with the same value in the 1910s. The half sen coin was demonetized at the end of 1953 along with other subsidiary coinage and is no longer legal tender. They are now readily available for collectors to own as coins from this denomination were minted in large quantities.

He signed a two-year deal to play for the Western Force on August 5, 2022. His main positions are fly-half. On May 8, 2021, he celebrated the first title in a decade for the Queensland Reds when he played at inside centre in the Super Rugby AU final at Suncorp Stadium.

He previously represented Australia in the national under 20s team.
