  She is an art performer who dances to music while painting pictures, telling a story while modifying the pictures in a short amount of time. Also especially skilled at dance performances that utilize art.
  After teaching art at junior high school, she created her unique performance style based on hints gained from dance, music, and other experiences on the stage. As a comprehensive artist, she presents her work both in Japan and overseas stage performances that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and nationalities. Her goal is to present her art performances in countries all over the world, and then utilize this experience to give back to society through education and human resource training. Another goal is to create sites for art tourism.
