Monthly magazine "Sportiva" Oct. edition (http://sportiva.shueisha.co.jp/) (published Aug 24)
have Miki ANDO's brief article in "Pictorial book of U-16 next generation girls athletes" corner.
(Her article and photograph isn't on web.)

Born in Aichi prefecture. Belongs Orion FSC.
'02 National championship 3rd.
Her high aim is Yuka SATO's basic skating,
Sasha COHEN's spirals and Midori ITO's jumps.

(-partially omitted-)
At her elementary school late third grade, she had first
experience of skating and then invited from there coach.
She started to competitive skating because she loves jumps.
So still her arm is jumps. Although she landed triple axel and
quad salchow in practice, frustrated about it. "It's not perfect."
This season's target is to win Junior Worlds.
Next season, she will pass age limits and start to compete internationally.
