I first started playing the piano at five years old. As I gradually became older, I learned a variety of new pieces under the careful guidance of my instructor, Ms. Chiang. I have a strong affection for piano and enjoy using my musical abilities to volunteer at senior living communities, bringing joy to their faces. I passed the MTAC Certificate of Merit’s Advance Level with state honors. Other than playing piano, I enjoy playing tennis.
