I was born on 7th Jun 1983.
I have started skin diving and spear fishing from University.
2009 Feb. one of my friends invite me to join freediving team, and I seriously started freediving.
At the same year, I attended spearfishing Japan cup as a first woman player in Japan.
After started skin diving, my feeling was changed to be closer to nature than before.
Also, ocean made me various experience and many encounters.
I'd like to thank to the ocean and live with the ocean.
