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.

We often get questions about trying to get into the child modeling industry. A lot of parents invest time and money to get their child into the industry only to find out it wasn’t the right fit for them. We’ve put together our top 5 tips when considering getting your child into the industry.

Make sure your child is really interested in being in the industry. There’s nothing worse than a parent forcing a child into the industry who does not want to do it. Test the waters before making a commitment to make sure your child is really interested in doing this.
Do your research when it comes to agencies and other jobs that you are getting your child involved in. We’ve seen so many newbies starting out that end up going with agencies that are not good for their child’s career, classes that are not helpful or fashion shows and shoots that are not beneficial for their career.
While it is definitely possible to get into an agency from a standard snapshot, if you are having trouble getting noticed sometimes a great new headshot can make them take a second look. A great photographer can highlight the best features in your child, so it can sometimes be the little push they need to get started.

4. Do not get in the way of your child’s career. We’ve seen so many situations where everyone loves the kid, but they don’t get booked because of parents that are difficult to work with.
5. Make sure you are committed and available before getting into the industry. There’s a lot of work involved between castings, bookings, fittings, etc. so make sure you are willing to put in the time or have a great support system to help you and your child along your journey.
