In 2014, Nhi was the only candidate who got chosen to study in Kunstuniversität Graz (Austria) with full scholarship, after a series of auditions which were held by the ASIA-Uninet and OeAD in the South-East Asia region. During her time in Austria, she was engaged in numerous performances throughout Europe, such as Bad Goisern (Austria), Karlsruhe (Germany) and Aarhus (Denmark).

Nhi was selected to perform in various international festivals such as the Amalfi Music Festival (Italy), Engadin Summer Piano Academy (Samedan, Switzerland) and Musical Chairs (Montreal, Canada). She has worked alongside Andras Schiff, Gabor Takacs-Nagy, Stephen Hough, Shlomo Mintz, Nelson Goerner and David Fray.
Nhi obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Piano Performance with full scholarship at the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music (Singapore) and Master of Music Degree in Piano Performance and Chamber Music at the University of Michigan–where she continues to pursue her Doctoral of Musical Arts degree under the tutelage of Prof. Christopher Harding.
