After her graduation in 1984 she took a further short course with Prof. Vera Rózsa in London as well as repeated courses with Maestro Thomas Blum in Zürich. In the next three years she was member and soloist of the Budapest Radio Choir.
This was followed by contracts in various theatres in Hungary, appearing in leading roles such as Eboli, Carmen, Azcena, Santuzza, Dorabella.
