I started piano lessons at the age of 5. When I was in 4th grade I conducted a community service project, performing 17 recitals at 5 various nursing homes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYnqP9FzdMo). At the same age, I joined the Federation of Music Clubs, where I achieved 7 consecutive years of superior ratings and earned 2 gold cups. Aside from computing, playing piano has been my pastime. I have been volunteering as a pianist at my Church every Saturday since 7th grade. Giving back to the community is very fulfilling.
