Early life

edit

Originating from Okayama, Japan, she developed an interest in Arnold Schwarzenegger at the age of 9, inspired by watching "Terminator 2." This experience played a significant role in shaping her aspirations to pursue a career as an international actress. Following her high school graduation, she undertook a solo journey to Canada in 2012 with only 80,000 yen (approximately US$800 at the time) and little proficiency in English.[4]
