Hailing from Ichikawa, Chiba Prefecture, her distinctive and unique appearance, influenced by her French grandfather, caught the attention of scouts and led her to enter the entertainment industry. In 1973, she made her singing debut under RCA Victor. That same year, she became a regular on Tokyo 12ch's "Playgirl Q." During her early years as a newcomer, she aimed to become a singer similar to Elvis Presley and admired Wada Akiko. She appeared in numerous weekly magazines, variety shows, quiz programs, and dramas. On TV Asahi's "Dokusen! Onna no 60 Fun," she fearlessly took on the role of a reporter.

In 1988, she took a hiatus from her entertainment activities. Currently residing in Chiba City, she resumed her singing career in July 2002, primarily performing chansons and adult-oriented songs at live houses in Tokyo and Chiba City. During her hiatus in 1997, she encountered Shadow Box and became a student of Michiko Sekiguchi. Since 2009, she has frequently held solo exhibitions.
