The Romanian pianist made her  debut at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theater/Japan and St Martin-in-the-Fields London/UK when she was only 20. Four years later, she made her debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York in a sold-out recital, rewarded by the American public with standing ovations.

She received her Bachelor of Music Degree with the maximum mark from the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln (Cologne, Germany), the largest music university in Europe. Consequently, she obtained her Master Degree in Music Performance from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London and her Master Degree in Arts Management from the Bocconi University of Economics in Milano.
