Born in Taiwan, Lily moved to Houston, Texas with her family when she was 7 years old. She grew up in a multi-cultural environment with a strong Persian influence from a close family friend. It wasn't until Lily moved to Austin, Texas that she began studying Middle Eastern dance. Inspired and eager to learn the dance more extensively, Lily continues her dance education with many distinguished Austin and international dancers.

In addition to dance, Lily has a strong foundation in music. She grew up studying music and playing classical instruments like the piano, flute, bassoon, and percussion. Lily's unique style is a reflection of her understanding of rhythm, music composition, and essence of this art form. She is known for her natural and graceful movements as well as her precise technique and dynamic energy.

Lily's performance experience ranges from festivals, nightclubs, large stage productions, haflahs, to family parties. In addition to performing belly dance, Lily also teaches private classes for the advanced student and weekly courses for the beginner. Lily's passion for belly dance includes tribal fusion style belly dance, which she also performs and teaches.

In 2003, Lily relocated from Austin, Texas to central London, where she met Hannah and formed the first tribal fusion belly dance group in London, TribalKinesis. While living in London, Lily studied bellydance intensively with Serena Ramzy and traveled throughout Europe and Asia.

In 2007, after living in New Zealand for about a year, Lily returns to Austin, Texas, where she is a member of the Sabaya Bellydance Collective.
