At the tender age of five, Mercedesz made her debut as a pianist in Stockholm, where her family relocated in 1996. This marked the beginning of her musical journey, which would be marked by numerous performances and competitions. When she turned seven, she participated in the prestigious piano competition "Unga Pianister" (Young Pianists),although she did not emerge victorious, she did manage to reach the semifinals, a testament to her exceptional talent.
Mercedesz continued her musical education, graduating from the esteemed Lilla Academy School.
