Megumi started taking the Piano lesson at the age of 4.  She played percussion in Elementary ~ High school marching band.  She was also in a rock band as a lead vocalist.

She became interested in Ethnic music at around the age of 13.

Megumi graduated from Wayne State University with BA in Music composition (studied under Dr. James Hartway).  After that, she went to College of Music and Theater Munich (studied under Dr. Norbert J. Schneider) and graduated with BA in Composition for TV and film.

In 1999, Megumi formed her own band named "tov".  Mixture of classical, rock, ethnic, and pop music taste, the band not only played by themselves but collaborated with dancers and other forms of arts.

In 2004, Megumi decided to fulfill her dream which she had since she was very young - to become a dancer.  And in some kind of fate, she started learning belly dance at Karima Arabian Dance Company in Tokyo.  She has now been dancing and teaching belly dance under the dancer name of "Leon."

Along with being a belly dancer, tov held a perfomance in 2021 after 13 years of hiatus.

Work experience:

Proviced music for a theatrical company "Kadenz (now renamed to "Re-membered)", and other companies.

Music for a documentary film "Bavarian notebook (director: Veit Bastian, 2004)".

Music for the introductory film of "Fuji Film Fine pix" in an international conference.

Also, tov has played at many live houses and concert halls in Tokyo area.
