She currently makes textile-marble sculptural pairs. She regularly participates in national and international exhibitions. She held the scholarship awarded by the Hungarian Academy of Arts from 2018 to 2021. She participated in the University Research Fellowship Programme in 2023-2024 and in the New National Excellence Programme in 2024-2025.
