BIOGRAPHY

Music has always been a passion of mine since I was young. I developed a love for the piano starting at the age of six. As a recipient of numerous academic awards, scholarships, and piano competitions from Pasadena City College and San Francisco State University, I have received the MTAC award (San Francisco Branch) and won the Paul Andrieu Memorial Scholarship from San Francisco State. I graduated Summa Cum Laude at San Francisco State University in 2011 and completed a Masters degree in piano performance at California State University- Fullerton where I studied with Eduardo Delgado.

 

I have participated in piano and chamber music master classes with artists including Gabriela Montero, Akiko Ebi, Robert Koenig, the Alexander String Quartet, Czech Nonet, Martha Masters, Alvaro Pierri, and Sergio Assad. In Summer 2015, I attended the Todi International Music Masters Festival in Italy where I studied with pianists Antonio Pompa-Baldi and Alexander Korsantia and performed with the Napolinova Youth Orchestra.

 

From 2019-2020, I was admitted into the CMSV (Chamber Music Silicon Valley) Fellowship program run by San Jose-based flutist Ray Furuta. Performances were held at venues such as the San Jose Museum of Art, Santa Clara State University, and San Jose State University.

 

In addition to performing solo, I actively play in a piano duo, work as a choir accompanist at Boulder High School and Centennial Middle School, and maintain my own private studio in Boulder, Colorado. When I'm not at the piano, I'm out running on the trails, visiting a local coffee shop, or relaxing with my cat Mittens.
