I’ve always had an immense passion for music. My musical journey began at a young age of 5 when I started learning the piano, gaining fundamental knowledge of reading sheet music and playing notes. Music has been a constant fascination throughout my life, shaping my childhood and inspiring me deeply. My admiration for exceptional cellists like Yo-Yo Ma, Gautier Capuçon, and Stephan Hauser motivated me to pursue the cello. I’ve been taking lessons and attending classes at both the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts and The Colburn School of Music to further my musical education.
