Minori was born and raised in Japan, but also greatly influenced by living in Northern Europe.

She set to make jewelry when she was living in Denmark, and began to study goldsmithing upon her return to Japan. For the next several years she worked in a Tokyo office. But eventually the goldsmith in her won out, and she decided return to Finland to study goldsmithing.

 

She wishes to start selling her jewelry soon.
