I was born and raised in Tokyo, and after ten years in Japanese theatre, I moved to the UK in 2013 to study acting in English with only basic language skills. Since completing my MFA at East 15 Acting School, I’ve worked with physical theatre companies (Song of the Goat in Poland, Hamlet! in Egypt, India and Russia) and, as my English improved, moved into British TV (Coronation Street, My Friend Misty), film (The Phantom of the Open), video games (Grid Legends, Rise of the Ronin, Assassin's Creed), and Voice Over.
In 2024, I played my first main character in a Finnish TV series (The Man Who Died), which showed me the joy of truly collaborative screen work. Last year, I’ve taken on a few small TV and film roles alongside theatre R&D at the Globe, commercial, audiobooks, and extensive corporate work. In 2026, I'm in one of the great West End shows throughout the year.
I’d like to keep uncovering an authentic self that evolves across time, place, and culture.
