After finishing her study in the UK, she is now residing in Hong Kong and is a clarinet tutor at many primary and secondary schools. She is also a member of the Giocoso Trio, which is formed by three Hong Kong students who met at the RCM. In 2019, the trio has enrolled into the “RCM Gateway” scheme and it provides the successful applicants with access to a wide range of performance opportunities. This brings the Trio to various venues in London, notably including St Stephen’s Church and St James’s Sussex Gardens. Currently based in Hong Kong, Giocoso Trio regularly curates unique programmes with the goal of promoting classical music. Recent performances include French May Associated Project, the “Afternoon series” at Tai Kwun and “Midday Oasis” at Chung Chi College, CUHK. They have also appeared on RTHK’s TV programme ‘The Works’ and the radio programme ‘Student Concert Hall’.
