During her high school years, she taught herself how to play the guitar and perform in a band. She initially only aspired to become a singer, but she became interested in voice acting after becoming familiar with the anime series Macross Frontier, where she was impressed at how the series was able to combine music and animation in its storytelling. Hoping to become a professional singer, she began participating at various singing contests, such as the Animax Anison Grand Prix in 2009. She also performed at various live venues, including a steakhouse in Kobe.
