After that, she pursued postgraduate studies under the supervision of Prof. Colin Timms at the University of Birmingham, specialising in the music of Heinrich Schütz, and receiving her PhD in 2000.

My pieces have been recorded, performed in many countries including the USA and Canada, and heard on television and radio.'
