Philosophy

The violin, for me, is a means to an end: a medium of self-expression. While I am in constant pursuit of technical refinement, I find fulfillment in the process of musical interpretation and finding my individuality through my instrument. I consider myself a lifelong student, absorbing and re-imagining the ideas of my musical heroes. I aspire to be a champion of unabashed creativity, and I hope to help people connect through music.
