She moved to the U.S. and studied jazz and Latin music under Pat Coil, Jim Trompeter and Jeremy Kahn, ultimately earning her B.M. from Roosevelt University and M.M. from Northwestern University. Fujisaki masterfully shifts between disparate musical settings, playing hymns on the pipe-organ in the morning before rocking out on Keytar at night. Her musical versatility is showcased by the variety of musical projects and theater productions she collaborates with including ORiHANA and Entre Amigos.

She has also appeared in various other recordings in the past few years including Vladimir Cetkar’s “Let Us Be” (2025), “Hope Littwin’s “Live at Avaloch Farm”(2025), Lauren Alyssa’s “This Blue Woman” and Juanjo Lopez’s “Above, Beyond, Within” (2025).
