She has performed at several famous music festivals such as Music@Menlo, Heifetz International Music Institute, Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival, Olympic Music Festival, and Icicle Creek Chamber Festival.
She is now working in Hanoi and recently completed a record of a piano concerto by Robert Schumann together with the VNSO.
