Russ Marin of Xtra Magazine has described Suki Doll as “one of very few drag performers of Asian descent working regularly” in Quebec.[11] She has also performed in Toronto‘s Queens of Dim Sum event, which highlights Asian and Pacific Islander drag artists.[12]

Following her run on season 2 she has worked has continued working as a costume designer including for outfits worn by Icesis Couture and by Brooke Lynn Hytes on future seasons of Canada’s Drag Race.[13] She has furthermore created looks for Nicky Doll (Drag Race France), Rita Baga (Drag Race Belgique), Miss Fiercalicious (Canada’s Drag Race: Canada vs. the World) and Pythia (RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars).[14]
