Piano

a piano

I started taking piano lessons when I was 5 years old and that was really my introduction to the the foundations of music. Along with playing the piano, I also started learning how to read music and that was really helpful for me to be able to learn how to play other instruments as well. I did testing and even learned music theory as well. I stopped taking piano lessons when I was 15 but I still enjoy listening to piano music and reminiscing about the fun times I had learning how to play the piano.

Cello

I started taking cello lessons when I was 10 years old. Beyond solo reportoire, I also played in my city's youth orchestra from middle school to my senior year of high school. With this orchestra I had the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall and tour Italy, which were both really amazing experiences. Today I continue to listen to cello music and I do miss playing often.

Original Music

a music note

I've been writing original music ever since I was little. However, I only started actually recording and sharing my music when I was in high school. Although I am still a little shy about sharing my music, it is something that I really enjoy doing and I hope to continue sharing my music with others in the future. I have a lot of fun writing music and I find it to be a really great creative outlet for me.
