About

I am a Bay Area violinist, originally from London, Ontario, Canada. I started playing violin at the age of 3. At the age of 5, I made my first orchestral solo debut and have been performing ever since. I have studied with many great violinist before me, including Dorothy DeLay, Arnold Steinhardt and Kevork Mardirossian.

Recently, I have been focusing more on presenting the emotion, poetry, and heart of the violin alone. Some of the greatest works have been written for the violin alone - think of Bach's Six Solo Sonatas and Partitas for the violin as an example. With this project, I aim to engage my community and the wider public (via online) through the these pieces.

Music

My repertoire ranges from the classics (Bach, Ysaye, Kreisler, Mozart, etc) to more modern composers, including Erik Funk and Pehr Henrik Nordgren.
