For more than twenty years, I have built my career as an international performer, beginning my professional journey at eighteen and following opportunities across the world. My career has taken me throughout the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, the Middle East, and Japan, working across cruise entertainment, themed entertainment, concerts, luxury events, and original theatrical productions.

Throughout that journey, I have navigated many of the same auditions, contracts, relocations, cultural transitions, and periods of uncertainty that performers encounter when pursuing opportunities beyond their home markets. Those experiences taught me that building an international career requires much more than talent — it also requires preparation, adaptability, professionalism, and the confidence to navigate unfamiliar environments.

Alongside performing, mentorship and arts education have remained an important part of my career. I have participated in performance workshops, studied voice in Los Angeles, New York, and London, created and produced my own work, and developed original productions with entertainment companies.

Working in the development of new productions has also given me experience on another side of the industry. I have been selected to workshop new shows, record lead vocals for developing productions, and collaborate on work shaped around my vocal and performance strengths. These experiences have given me insight not only into the challenges performers face, but also into how creative teams develop productions
and evaluate talent.

Yume Hashi International grew from a simple belief: performers pursuing opportunities beyond familiar borders should have access to practical guidance from someone who understands what that experience can actually look like. My goal is to share what I have learned throughout my own career to help other artists approach their next steps with greater preparation, perspective, and confidence.
