I am Mia, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Charleston Music Competition for providing the opportunity to showcase my talent and grow as a young violinist. This experience has fueled my determination to continue learning, sharing and communicating my music with the world. I hope to use this experience as inspiration to continue challenging myself, exploring new repertoire, and pursuing my dreams. I just achieved the remarkable milestone by winning the Charleston Music Competition and my musical journey has only just begun.
