Biography

Igoma was born in Tochigi Prefecture.{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=866qWn7lv0U |title=【推しらじ】MEMちょ役の大久保瑠美さんがゲスト!『【推しの子】のおはなし』ラジオ生放送!第7回! |date=June 16, 2023 |type=Podcast |language=Japanese |publisher=YouTube |access-date=November 5, 2023 |archive-date=November 5, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231105001840/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=866qWn7lv0U |url-status=live }}{{Verification needed|date=December 2023}} She first became interested in acting when she was in the second grade of elementary, after she watched a play held by students from the sixth grade. She wanted to perform as well when she reached the sixth grade, and when she was able to do so, she realized that acting was fun to her. It was at this point she became interested in pursuing an acting-related job when she got older. Another inspiration was her love of Disney works, which was strengthened by yearly family trips to Tokyo Disneyland. It was to the point that she considered Mickey Mouse as a mentor and Walt Disney as someone she respected.{{cite web |title=伊駒ゆりえ「みなさんに元気をお届けしたい。きれいごとじゃなくて、本当に思ってます」【声優図鑑 by 声優グランプリ】 |url=https://seigura.com/senior/118195/ |access-date=November 5, 2023 |language=ja |date=July 28, 2023 |archive-date=November 22, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231122142235/https://seigura.com/senior/118195/ |url-status=live }}

As a result of her love for Disney works, Igoma eventually decided on pursuing a career as a voice actress. She applied for admission at a vocational school three days after making her decision. She was able to pay for her own tuition from salaries she made with a part-time job. Following an on-campus audition, Igoma became affiliated with 81 Produce, starting her career in 2021.{{cite web |title=【声優スクール特集】「アミューズメントメディア総合学院」伊駒ゆりえさんのインタビューが公開中! |url=https://seigura.com/news/117599/ |website=Seigura.com |access-date=November 5, 2023 |language=Japanese |date=July 12, 2023 |archive-date=November 5, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231105001841/https://seigura.com/news/117599/ |url-status=live }}
