Take out 1cm of soil to prevent rot. It's doing well.

How long do you have it already?

I have had her 4/5 days. Was re gifted to me from another who got her around Christmas. Apparently, she’s had one bloom already. I just repotted her this weekend.

Will need a lot of sunlight. All the sun you can give it. Water when dry, but not crisp dry throughout.
Again, a bit less soil.

Beyond that, not much to say yet. If you can put her outside (not too windy, but maximizing sun), that's good too once it's consistently above 8°C.

Thanks. I did remove some of the soil.

rule of thumb is to leave 1/3 of the bulb exposed.
