She graduated from Tohoku University in 1988.
After working in a legal cram school, she passed the Japanese bar examination on her fifth attempt, and qualified as an attorney at law in 1995.
After three years practicing consumer rights law, she was selected for a Japan Federation of Bar Associations scholarship to study in the United States.
She was a visiting fellow at the New York University School of Law starting in 1999.
Following the birth of her second child in 2002, and her husband being transferred to a position in the United States for two years, she left law practice to become a housewife.
In 2005, she joined the Financial Services Agency, where she served as a deputy director and financial inspector.
