About Me

As a petite 5 foot tall half Japanese actress, at first glance it makes sense that I’ve been cast as Juliet-esque ingenues and sweet girl-next-door types throughout my acting career.  While I enjoy these roles, I love playing beyond my face value within my narrative work: silly and dynamic characters in Children’s stories, gossipy and cold-as-ice in Chic Lit, thoughtful and grounded in Non-Fiction.

My voice has been described as warm, youthful, and approachable.  Having been raised in Japan, I possess both an authentic understanding of Asian culture, and I also speak fluent conversational Japanese.  Whether it’s books for young audiences; Rom Coms; Contemporary Fiction; or Career, Wellness and Self-Development Nonfiction, I am drawn towards voicing feel-good stories that highlight the beautiful complexity of the human experience and ultimately inspire women, young people, and the Asian community to feel seen, loved, and empowered.

Outside of my voice work, as a forever student I have earned the lovingly bestowed nickname of “Continual Improvement” from my husband and I have acquired numerous certifications in Yoga and Pilates; I’ve been teaching these for over a decade and have taught numerous trainings throughout the world.

When I’m not in the booth recording, you can find me reading Brené Brown’s latest, getting out for a hike under some big tall trees, or sipping my homemade matcha latte whist cuddling my two little girls.
