Piano

My piano journey began at the age of 4 in Taiwan (Orff/Kodaly Music Methodology taught at age 3). Some of my mentors include Yulya Ioshopa, Jiang Li Rong, and Erna Gulabyan. My works have been featured both nationally and on the international stage. I have a comprehensive understanding of various piano approaches (Russian European, Eastern/Western Methods). Carrying an extensive knowledge of Piano Pedagogy and Music Theory, I’ve coached over hundreds of students of all age ranges and skill levels. Throughout the year, I give back to the community by performing at Kaiser Permanente Hospital and San Jose Airport. Many of my students have moved on to pursue music performance in renowned music conservatories. I have participated in multiple events as a performer and accompanist including but not limited to
