In 2017, Mary was awarded the Textile Alliance Scholarship Award to study the Master of Arts at Middlesex University in London and graduated with distinction. Mary started practising metalsmithing during her master's degree, which inspired her to establish a contemporary metal jewellery brand not long after her graduation, this was the beautiful beginning of Soulotte. In 2021, Mary was selected by Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group to be part of their Design Residency Programme. Trained by the industry experts from Chow Tai Fook, Mary has gained goldsmith skills and capabilities to take her craftsmanship to a professional level.
