Kaori was born in Tokyo, Japan and moved to Toronto with her parents when she was 9 years old. She spoke no word of English and had to attend ESL classes for the first two years of elementary school in Canada. She was a competitive pianist since childhood, so she continued her study in music into post-secondary education.
After completing school, she did not feel quite ready to settle into a career. So she went backpacking to various destinations inAfrica and Europe. Her most memorable trips include trekking Mt Kilimanjaro, numerous safari in Tanzania and Kenya, and even the then war-torn Serbia. She even lived in Austria for a year as she enjoyed being away from home.

After the fun 20s, she spent her 30s and 40 s in the event planning/hospitality industry, managing and executing weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and corporate events. She then decided to pursue her long-held dream of helping other women in midlife get stronger and healthier. She obtained her personal training certification and she now trains women one-on-one via Zoom.
Check out her personal training business, Daily Flex – A personal Fitness Company here.
Kaori: I was always interested in modelling, but back in the 80s (when I was a teen) I was either not slim enough, tall enough, or the industry was not quite as inclusive yet for non-caucasians. I considered taking acting lessons but back then I was self-conscious of my English-as-second-language accents in my speech. Fast-forward into the year 2021, in the middle of one of the covid pandemic lockdowns, I sent my photos to Max Agency – just to see “what might happen.” After all, I felt that the society had become much more inclusive of the older population (Im 51) and non-caucasion ethnicities, I thought that I might have a chance at securing a job or two!
MAX: How has your experience been with MAX? Any memorable moments from set?
Kaori: A recent shoot for an upcoming theatrical-release film was a great experience! They took my head cast to design facial prosthetics for my role! More inspiring was about working with a team of hard-working and talented crew – I miss working with them now that the shoot has wrapped, and am keeping my fingers crossed that I will get to work with them again in the near future.

MAX: What is your dream role?
Kaori: Id love to be cast as a futuristic humanoid robot in Westworld in a battle scene. Or a Pepto-Bismol commercial and sing or dance along to its catchy jingle! I would also love a chance at fitness modelling or be featured as an editorial/catalogue model for any one of my favourite fitness attire brands.
MAX: What is the best advice that you have received about getting into the industry?
Kaori:Dont overact. Expand your network.

Happy International Womens Day! As a woman, take some extra time today to empower yourself and take care of yourself. Take it further and be mindful of other women in your surrounding as well. We are sharing five ways that you can empower the amazing women in your life!
1. Share Your Story
Weve all had ups and downs. Share your achievements with the women around you, as well as the challenges and failures that you learned from, along the way.
You may not realize it, but there are other women and girls who look up to you. So be relatable and share your journey to achieve your wins. When they see how you have done it, they will believe that they can reach their goals too.
This is great to empower yourself too! Appreciate your journey and be proud of it.
2. Stand Up for Women
Call out discrimination or inequality when you see it. Go further than only pointing it out. Explain why it is wrong and maybe even suggest a better alternative.
Do not worry about developing a reputation for bringing up these issues. It is something to be proud of. Sometimes it just takes someone to open their eyes before others can see the unconscious bias taking place. Most individuals nowadays want to be fair, so you’ll be doing them a favour.
Toronto Talent Agency – Tip Tuesday – 5 ways to empower other women
3. Share Opportunities
Help others to find opportunities. Especially if you are in an executive role, search for women who would benefit from opportunities that you know of and recommend them.
Even if you are not in an executive role, when you see opportunities and you know a woman who would be interested, let them know.
4. Encourage Other Women
We question ourselves and we doubt ourselves, but we see the potential in others. Be the person who encourage others to see the power that they hold. Encourage other women to apply for that job, to achieve that promotion, to start that business,..sometimes all we need is a push and words of encouragement to believe in ourselves.
5. Build Your Network
Find other women like you who are positive, strong, encouraging, and ambitious. You can support each other to overcome challenges and also help other women succeed together.
A strong and supportive network at work and also in your personal life is a game changer.
