My name is Atisha Millie Chanbai, I go by Millie. I started learning piano at age 5 with Mr. Maxwell Adkisson at Chopin Academy of Music. My music journey started younger than that. I would dance and sing along when my big brother played piano. I love going to music classes and enjoy listening to many kinds of music. What I like about playing classical music is that it is rich in emotions. I often imagine stories along with the notes while I play piano. Since last year, I have been in piano competitions and won multiple awards including a Gold Medal in SIPF’s 2025 Classical Viennese Festival International. Besides from playing piano, I love creative writing especially in the fantasy and adventure genre, and I also do figure skating.
