Penny started her music journey at the very early age of 2 and a half, inspired by her neighbor, and started her piano lessons at this young age. Her parents witness her passion for music and decided to support fully her passion.

Back an early young age, at the age of 10, she already starts serving in children’s church ministry as a pianist, and also in other services when she grew older. The church is like her second home and Penny herself is a thick library of praise and worship songs.

She believes that all this exposure gave her motivation and inspiration to move further and it truly helps her a lot in her music career as a teacher.
