Additional Info:

I am a classically trained pianist with extensive experience as a collaborative artist across ballet, instrumental, vocal, and ensemble settings. Based in the UK, I hold an Artist Diploma from the Royal College of Music in London, as well as Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, where I studied under full scholarship. I also hold an Advanced Postgraduate Diploma (Level 8) and was granted the UK Global Talent Visa in recognition of my performance achievements.

As a collaborative pianist, I have worked with ballet schools, instrumentalists, singers, and ensembles across a wide range of repertoires. I served as a ballet accompanist at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, where I closely followed teachers’ direction in live classes and rehearsals, adjusting tempo, character, and dynamic to match movement. I have also accompanied instrumental and vocal exams (including ABRSM and Trinity), auditions, recitals, competitions, and masterclasses, both in the UK and internationally.

In 2023, I was invited to give performances and masterclasses at the 1st Nanjing Youth Music Festival. In 2025, I performed Elgar’s Sonata at the Elgar Festival, receiving praise from Elgar’s great-niece for my “inspiring interpretation.” I have also accompanied at major performance venues such as CBSO Centre and the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, including for the Pierre Boulez Centenary Celebration.

Whether sight-reading in rehearsals or preparing carefully curated programmes, I bring musical sensitivity, flexibility, and a strong sense of partnership to every collaboration. My background in solo and ensemble performance allows me to provide supportive, responsive, and artistically informed accompaniment across styles and settings.

I’m also a piano teacher can teach anything related to ABRSM exam.
