In addition to the Singapore Hit Awards, Xiaohan's lyrical works were also recognised in Singapore Compass Awards as well as Singapore eAwards. '達爾文' garnered Xiaohan her first regional Best Lyricist nomination in Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards in 2008.

From the Chinese pop music scene, Xiaohan expanded her scope to penning lyrics for musicals. She was also involved in the Speak Mandarin Campaign 2006, a fund-raising album "Hands United" for the 2004 tsunami victims and being a judge in various competitions.

She is currently the co-director of Funkie Monkies Productions with Eric Ng.
