Her mother is the famous pianist (黄爱莲) and she migrated to the States when she was 6 with her mother and sister. Since she was 4 she started learning piano under her mother's supervision. She graduated from Ecole de Jazz et Musique Actuelle in Switzerland with a special interest in Jazz and Soul music and she released singles and participated in music production work in Italy, Switzerland and was hired as a teacher in EJMA after her graduation in 1995. During the time she studied in Switzerland, she was a member of a band called Dutty Free, in wihch she officially started her music career. However, it was not until 1996 when her mother passed on a demo of her work to a music producer in Taiwan that she was introduced into the Chinese music industry and signed up to 磨岩Records (now under Rock Records Taiwan), a relatively alternative label that focused on alternative rock and indie at the time.
