Before moving to the United States, she served at Patkai Christian College, India, as a piano instructor. After moving to New Orleans to pursue her music career, she worked as an accompanist for the school choir at Holmer Plessy Community School, and the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary men’s chorus. She also served as a church pianist at First Baptist Belle Chasse, and an organist at Christ Lutheran Church, New Orleans.
