In the summer of 2023, he was invited to work with pianist Angela Hewitt for a week in Italy.

Jeremy has been playing the piano since he was six and has studied in prestigious institutions such as the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts and the Royal Academy of Music. He obtained his Licentiate Diploma in Piano Performance in 2014.
