Hello. Welcome to my official website. I am so happy to be able to share my passion for music with you through these pages. I started playing the piano and performing at the age of 8. This is when my love of the stage began. While attending my sister's orchestra performance a few years later, I became completely mesmarized by the bass section. I begged my parents for weeks to let me play the bass. They finally gave in and agreed to let me play a stringed instrument just as long as it could fit into the family car. This is the moment that I decided to become a cellist. I enjoyed playing both the piano and cello, so I continued studying both instruments throughout highschool and college.
Being a musician has enriched my life in ways that I could have never imagined. I feel very fortunate that I am able to do the work that I love every day. I am available to play for events and to give music lessons.
