Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario with a Japanese and Afghan descent, I started training in Martial Arts at the age of 3 years old recreationally and competitively.

Throughout my childhood, I was placed in many other different physical sports such as gymnastics. I was also placed in acting classes around the same time. At the age of 7, I picked up dance and found a passion for it. I started competitive dancing the year after, and throughout my years of dancing, I received numerous awards and accomplishments.

At the age of 17, I fully devoted myself to martial arts and the competitive side of Taekwondo. That same year, I was able to work my way up to having a spot on the Team Canada roster for two consecutive years.

After many years of physically intensive sports such as dancing and Martial Arts, I was inspired by my father to pick up work in the entertainment industry as a stunt performer. I discovered that I was very capable of pursuing this as my career.
