Biography

When she was in the upper grades of elementary school, she became addicted to anime when she watched ''Dragon Ball'' and became a fan of Tōru Furuya who played the role of Yamcha in the anime series. While she was in her second year of high school, she watched Furuya's role in ''Dragon Quest'', and while imitating the characters, she became interested in working as a voice actress.

After graduating from high school, her parents requested a vocational school of voice actors, but were told to go to high school. After graduating from high school, she had the goal of becoming a voice actor in Nihon Kogakuin, but opposed her family. She wanted to get a job related to voice actors and switch to the Department of Acoustics and Arts to become a radio personality. In radio program production training, she mainly practiced personality by taking charge of personality, and was used in subsequent radio conversations.

Though she was a student at the same school, she requested the Mars Girl Audition for the radio program ''Hiroi Oji no Multi Heaven''. From high school until now, she had failed several auditions, so finished the test. However, she won the Grand Prix and made a regular appearance on the radio. Later, Shigeru Chiba, who co-starred on the radio, became a member of 81 Produce, in that same period as Chie Chiba and Ryoka Kashiwagi.

In 2007, she expanded the scope of her work, including the dubbing roles of the main character Kanna in ''The great success of Kanna!''. The following year, she made her first appearance as a voice actress in ''Drama Battle Royale Gun Mage'' and ''The First Stage''.

Personal life

She reported in the end of 2016 that she was married and pregnant. In 2017, she gave birth to a baby boy. She is very interested in theater.
