She later moved to Nibutani, Hokkaido ,a community with a significant Ainu population , and then to Sapporo, where she began composing for piano. In 2022, the band in which she performed and composed was selected as a finalist in the Sapporo City Jazz Park Jazz Live Contest. In recent years she has also been creating video art.
