She majored in sociology when she was a university student and worked for an IT company after graduating. After working for about 6 years as a consultant and project manager, she studied in Canada. This was born out of a desire to study English and experience life overseas. She then stayed in a New Zealand country town as a backpacker. She felt the pleasure of being able to communicate in English while living overseas, and she wanted to work in English when she returned to Japan. Because she experienced New Zealand country life, she is good at growing vegetables from seeds and kayaking alone.
