Connor Chang was born on August 15, 2013 in Oakland CA. He is currently a 7th grader at Korematsu Middle School. When he was 8 years old, he was introduced to piano music while playing the game Piano Tiles on his iPad. Subsequently, he was fortunate enough to find the best teacher ever, Ms. Pai. Under her expert mentorship, he flourished and played via his own volition, despite various distractions and aversion towards practicing. Hopefully, his love for music will continue to grow and become an everlasting source of joy for himself and others.
