At the time, she became recognized as the familiar female voice that people would hear in a lot of Flash animations and games.

As someone who is passionate about gaming, Kira is thrilled to be one of the voices heard in many video games played around the world. Her most known role is as the lead character "2B" in the game "NieR:Automata", a role which she was able to reprise in the fighting game "Soulcalibur VI" along with the character "Talim".
When not acting, Kira loves listening to classic rock music (particularly David Bowie), watching makeup tutorials, playing fighting games, going on Pokewalks, cosplay/conventions, and taking care of her multiple cats.
