Violin DJ

Expect an eloquent blend of classical elegance with high-energy, beautiful, and soulful music performed by a trained professional violinist of 16 years.

From performing in view of the crystal blue waters of Thailand, to rustic venues in the megalopolis of Mexico City, to the soulful funk spaces of Oakland, California, my musical exploration and passion for pushing boundaries of sound carries me across the world. These musical experiences make me an ideal entertainer for your special occasion.

My musical journey started at the age of 10, studying classical music in East Los Angeles. The violin is my saving grace, keeping me out of trouble and focusing on perfecting my skills and evolving an eclectic style. During college in Los Angeles, I had the privilege of becoming the first director of a youth orchestra at Virtuosos Russian Music Academy VRMA. ‘Teaching is learning’ and this experience catapulted my practice. I earned the Balestrieri Scholarship to study violin performance at San Francisco State University in (phone number hidden)0. At SFSU, I studied Classical orchestra, chamber ensembles, jazz, AfroCuban, and jazz composition. Moreover, I gigged with local musicians in LA, SF, and Oakland, and ultimately performed at Burning Man in 2022.

In 2020-21, I earned the prestigious Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship allowing me to study business marketing abroad at Mahidol university of Thailand.

In Thailand I discovered a passion for electronic music and began experimenting with blends of classical, Latin jazz, hip-hop, R&B, house, and downtempo. I graduated with a Bachelor's of Music in May of 2022, cementing myself as an adept and disciplined multi-genre musician. While in Thailand and despite the challenges of the pandemic, I secured a musical residency at The Hilltop Resort, Café Del Mar, and Catch Beach Club in Phuket. Currently, my style combines improvised violin performance with electronic beats and contributes to my uniqueness as a performer. I earned a residency as the first Violin DJ at the Four Seasons Hotel in Palo Alto as well as The Westin Hotel in San Francisco.
