Bio
Get to Know Emika ...
At what age did you start playing soccer and how did you get into soccer?
- I started playing soccer when I was six because of my brother.
- "Emi" means smile, "Ka" means flower in Kanji, so it means smiling flower. My parents gave me this for my happiness and to make people around me smile.
- I did a part time job at Universal Studio in Japan at Elmo's gogo cart.
