More recently, her activities include performances at St. Paul's Church, Bedford, which was her first recital in the UK. In February she gave a concert in the David Josefowitz Recital Hall. She continues studying with Professor Pienaar and has also received one to one teaching from Cathryn Stott and coaching from Prof. Pascal Devoyon, the Broadwood Visiting Chair of the Piano Department at the Royal Academy of Music.
