Nu was born in Englewood, NJ of mixed heritage, with her mother being Japanese and her father of Dutch descent. Her maternal lineage traces back to Okinawa, the largest of Japan’s Ryukyu Islands in the southern part of Japan.

Nu’s grandparents on her mother’s side emigrated from Okinawa to the United States, bringing with them their customs, language dialects, and culinary traditions.
