Her Story: Her father was a music lover. Music was always in the house and she grew up with music. She listened to various kinds of music. Her father was a big fan of Oscar Peterson and he dreamed that someday his daughter would play the piano for him. She loved playing the piano and practiced seriously. She started writing songs when she was a high school student. She studied song writing and composition from Ms Eri Kojima who is a famous voice trainer now.
When she was a univ student, she studied Enlgish ballad specially.
One day her friend took her to a jazz bar and she was very impressed by the jazz improvisation. She decided to study jazz music seriously. She started Jazz piano first and then started to sing jazz songs. Now she is a professional jazz singer.
