Overview

With years of experience performing at events, private parties, and concert halls around the world, I bring a deep love of music to every performance. I majored in Piano Performance at UNC Chapel Hill on a full-ride scholarship, where I trained intensively in classical repertoire. I am currently attending Northwestern University pursuing my Master's. Whether I’m playing for an intimate gathering or a large venue, my goal is always to share the beauty and emotion of classical music with everyone. I believe music is meant to be experienced and enjoyed by all, and I’m passionate about creating meaningful musical moments that connect people and leave a lasting impression.
