You are making fine progress. Good solid tone center and core sound.
I am happy for you.
A small suggestion is to open your throat.... think 'O' , a big one at the back of the throat. That is very important.
Keep that going almost all the time. It will also help you loosen the top to bottom pressure of your chops on the reed. That is also a good thing. Push the lips forward like a kiss on your Granny's cheek. Further forward, the better.
You are already doing some things better than I did for many years and that is take in less reed into the face. Very important.
Nice work. Congrats.
