She worked as a clerk at a branch until 1992, when, amid, she decided to finally realize her dream to travel around the world. She arrived in in 1993. There, she began her singing career after being discovered singing in a club by Felix Tellefsen and Torje Grieg of Metronome, who invited her into the group.
