She is now active as a certified yoga instructor, teaching yoga classes and issuing a series of instructional books and videos. She is also the public face of the corporation Cherrybabe, Inc. She first became interested in SNK when she moved to Tokyo with her boyfriend and played Fatal Fury 2 with him at the local game center. She continued to play SNK games even when she was famous, which eventually was spotted by the company. Her favorite character is Nakoruru because of her "cute and cool" attire, who she eventually cosplayed for one of the character's image song.
