She is a hapa with a Japanese mother and White American father. In her youth, Todd trained and competed in gymnastics, but later gave up the pursuit due to wanting a balance with her personal life.[3] Todd attended California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo and completed a five-year master's program in aerospace engineering.[4] After beginning kickboxing classes, Todd's then boyfriend, now husband, introduced her to a Muay Thai gym.[5]

Muay Thai career

Todd first competed as an amateur in 2009. She won the bout by TKO but did not return to competition until 2013.[citation needed] In 2017, Todd captured the bronze medal at the IFMA World Championships and World Games, subsequently winning an IFMA Pan-American Championship. She later won gold at the 2017 IFMA Pan American Championships at 51 kg.[citation needed]

She faced Stamp Fairtex a second time, fighting for the ONE Women's Atomweight Kickboxing World Championship, at ONE: King of the Jungle on February 28, 2020,[10] winning by split decision.[11] Todd faced former ONE Atomweight Muay Thai title challenger Alma Juniku in a non-title Muay Thai match at ONE: Fists Of Fury 3 on March 19, 2021. She defeated Juniku by unanimous decision, scoring a knockdown in the second round.[12] Todd faced Anne Line Hogstad at ONE on TNT 2 on April 14, 2021.[13] She won via a body kick that dropped Hogstad in the third round.[14] Todd faced promotional newcomer Lara Fernandez for the interim ONE Women's Atomweight Muay Thai World Championship at ONE 159 on July 22, 2022.[15] She won the fight by unanimous decision.[16] Todd was scheduled to face Allycia Rodrigues in a ONE Women's Atomweight Muay Thai World Championship unification bout at ONE on Prime Video 5 on December 3, 2022.[17] She withdrew from the fight on November 30, after testing positive for COVID-19.[18] The pair was rescheduled on March 25, 2023, at ONE Fight Night 8.[19] She lost the bout via unanimous decision.[20] Todd faced the interim champion Phetjeeja Lukjaoporongtom for the ONE Women's Atomweight Kickboxing World Championship unification bout on March 9, 2024, at ONE Fight Night 19.[21] She lost the fight by unanimous decision and announced her retirement during the post-fight interview.[22]
