After the tragic loss of her husband in 1990, she immigrated to Israel in 1993 with her 2-year-old daughter.
Upon her arrival, she began working as a singer and conductor for small vocal groups.
Not only did she work as a music teacher, but she also continued to create music on her own.
She later moved to New York for three years, releasing a follow-up CD entitled “Jewish Love Songs,”
based on Hebrew poetry, recorded in NYC with musicians from the jazz and world music scenes.
Since 2016, she has been working in Israel on a brand-new festival called Sunflower for Creative Women.
For this festival, featuring a jazz trio and a chamber quartet, they created her newest album of original songs and the program "Impressions" (2019).
