Goldsmith Fellowship, the Summer Song Theater Festival Artist Development Grant, the TYA/USA Festival and Conference Access for All Support Grant and the Maestra Musical Writers Festival Scholarship.

Her journey also includes a BA Philosophy from University College London (UCL), an MSt Entrepreneurship from the University of Cambridge and the TRU PDMP (Producer Development & Mentorship Program) Foundations Class.
