Yukari currently lives in California and began studying piano in Germany at the age of six. Each time she learns a new piece, she is deeply moved by its harmonies and feels great respect for the composer. She is dedicated to both piano and ballet, and feels that the two disciplines inspire and strengthen each other. In 2021 and 2022, she received First Place at the Mendelssohn Competition in Germany.
