Biography

I feel a good musician is many things, such as a composer, an arranger, and a performer. I want to teach my style of playing to whoever wants to learn it. I started to play the piano when I was 8 and I used to play while my father player his guitar. He could play the guitar and sing very well. This is how I learned to play with other people. I really had a lot of fun. When I was in high school, I joined the school band and played the bass. Since that time, I’ve taken music seriously. So, I decided to go to music school. I was admitted with scholarship from all 6 of the schools that I applied ... to. I went to Dongduk women’s university in Seoul for 2 years but ended up dropping out. I wanted to study abroad. Finally, I decided to come to the states and it has been a great musical journey.
I’ve played Piano, Keyboard and Hammond Organ in variety styles of music. Jazz music is my main thing but I’m trying to diverse different kinds of music such as Hip-hop, R&B, Gospel, Pop and Funk and find my own color.
I love traveling and have been in Turkey and many countries in Caribbean seas for playing music. That is one of my goals which playing music and seeing the world. I hope I can keep this musical journey and am trying to be better person and musician all the time.
