While she was involved in XMASS experiment, Direct WIMP Search experiment in Kamioka, Japan, she found it is awesome to hunt WIMP and decided to be an experimental astroparticle physicist. She is a big fan of Murakami Haruki, Paul Auster, and Paulo Coelho. Except reading novels, her hobby is going to the museums (she is enjoying free passes from Columbia to the MET, MoMA and other museums in NYC.). After she joined XENON group, she added hiking, playing ping pong and cooking pasta to her other hobbies.
