Her natural ability to teach also landed her a teaching role for The Performance Net teaching dance, drama and musical theatre which evolved into a larger role as she would choreograph routines for shows, write scripts and design the shows. It was no surprise that she was drawn to the physical nature of performance as her love of sports started at a young age where she excelled in the sporting arena which was diverse.

Her love of martial arts has lead to training in Chin Woo Wushu, Balintawak Arnis stick fighting, Boxing and Jui Jitsu. Her ability to act and perform, combined with her body awareness transferred well to the physical side of film work and naturally lent her hand to stunts.
