On her return to the Philippines, she suited up for the Cocolife Asset Managers (United Volleyball Club), a team in the Philippine Superliga (PSL) in 2018.

In early 2021, Mau had a brief stint with Puerto Rico side Changos de Naranjito at the 2021 Liga de Voleibol Superior Femenino.

Mau has represented the Philippines in international volleyball, particularly at the first leg of the 2019 ASEAN Grand Prix. She took part in the national team's training camps in Thailand and Japan leading up to the 2019 Southeast Asian Games before being declared ineligible to compete in the regional games after she was found to have failed to meet a two-year residency requirement set by the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB).
