In 2013 she was a finalist in the Montserrat Caballe International Competition, and was subsequently invited to masterclasses with Montserrat Caballé at the Liceu in Barcelona.

She has had the pleasure of working with Bruno Aprea, Andrew Parrott, Bob Chilcott, Justin Lavender and John Rutter, and participating in Masterclasses with Emma Kirkby, Ian Partridge, Nicholas Clapton & Italian Tenor Luca Canonici.
She has studied under Nicholas Powell, Janice Chapman, and Italian Soprano Stefania Magnifico.
