Until her voice acting debut

edit

Aida grew up as the only child of a single mother. In the second grade, she moved to Los Angeles, California with her mother in order to study abroad, where she lived for four years.

Aida returned to Japan when she was in the fifth grade. Soon after, she began child acting and modeling. When Aida was in her first year of high school, she met a director and decided she wanted to begin professional acting. In her third year of high school, she was given the opportunity to act in a stage production directed by the same director she had previously met.

After graduating from high school, Aida worked part-time without pursuing higher education, and later enrolled in the first-year basic course of the training school operated by Ken Production.[5] She would go on to study for a year in the basic course and two years total in the training school, resulting in her being cast as Riko Sakurauchi in Love Live! Sunshine!!. In 2014, while enrolled in the training school, she made her voice acting debut in Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures as Ghost.

Aida was previously active under the name "Rikako Itō". At the time, she was a member of From First Production.
