The voice of, among oodles of others, Mylene Flare Jenius/Sterling and Shayla-Shayla.

I was fortunate enough to get her autograph session at Anime Central 2024, and she signed my Macross 7 artbook alongside Nobutoshi Canna‘s from an earlier convention. She was cheerful and upbeat, and I had hopes she’d be at another con I could reach so we could see her again.
