A life in motion.

I’ve never followed one straight path.

Born in Japan, raised in Brazil and now based in Melbourne, Australia, I’ve always been curious about the world and drawn to different ways of creating, moving and expressing myself.

My work spans commercial modelling and performance, content creation, music and creative projects. I’m interested in the spaces where different disciplines, cultures and experiences meet.

A group of people celebrating at a party, with a woman about to cross a finish line for a celebration or race. Everyone is smiling and joyful. The text says "Worth it".
A woman with dark hair smiling and holding a small pink device. The background is orange with white handwritten notes about the device's features, including 'Madame Mango,' '365 day warranty,' 'targeted pleasure tip,' 'vibration frequencies,' and 'one button operation.' The notes also mention its effectiveness for vulvas and other erogenous zones, and that it is pocket-sized and easy to hold. The woman is wearing a green and pink floral shirt.

CREATIVE PROJECTS

My curiosity doesn’t stop at the camera. I also create, perform, make and produce projects that bring culture, movement, art and people together.

PERSONALITY / PHILOSOPHY

I believe life is something to participate in.

To try. To make. To move. To explore. To learn. To play.

I’m happiest when I’m experiencing something rather than simply observing it — and I’m constantly curious about where the next experience might take me.

Create. Move. Explore. Learn. Play.

COLLABORATE WITH ME

Let’s create something together.

I’m open to collaborations with brands, production companies, artists, cultural organisations and creative teams looking for someone who brings curiosity, versatility and genuine enthusiasm to the project.
