THIS IS MY STORY
I'm a creative edutainer who loves elephants and the color blue. My artistic journey began early—at five years old—as a studio singer for Columbia Music Entertainment Japan, and since then, I’ve performed on numerous albums and singles, including songs featured in films. I also appeared as a bilingual host and singer on the popular Japanese children’s TV program Shimajiro, an experience that helped shape my commitment to child-centered, cross-cultural media.
My work spans multiple creative fields: I am a voice-over artist for video games, animation, and educational multimedia content; a trained bilingual theater performer of 13 plus years; and a passionate composer and visual storyteller. I've created award-winning music videos raising awareness about endangered species—particularly elephants, which I hold dear.
In parallel with my artistic pursuits, I’ve lectured and taught extensively in both Japan and the U.S. I currently serve as a senior lecturer at Otis College of Art and Design and as an online humanities instructor for Stanford’s Online High School. I’m also a published specialist in art education for young learners.
Whether in the studio, on stage, or in the classroom, I believe the best way to live is to embrace everything you love. I hope you enjoy exploring my work. [Click here for my extended Bio..]
