Hi My name is Neil Sarlashkar, I am a 16-year-old sophomore with a deep passion for music, having spent the last eight years dedicating myself to the piano. Over the years, I have had the incredible privilege of performing at Carnegie Hall twice and have placed 3rd and 4th in previous music competitions. My musical journey also extends to the rich traditions of Indian classical singing. Alongside my music, I channel my energy and discipline into sports, having played Varsity football and run track for the past three years, striving for excellence in everything I do.
