Despite being a lifelong musician, his life circumstances had put him in a position many similar youths find themselves in. Before turning 17 he was a high school dropout, working full-time, and living on his own. Yet, it was a dedication to music that inspired him to pursue higher education to fulfill his potential.
Despite the odds, he achieved a full scholarship to UC Berkeley for piano. From there he graduated with honors in 2012 and has been teaching for the last decade. His unique approach to instruction gained such notoriety he opened the San Ramon Academy of Music in 2018. Music has given him so much and it is his mission to give back to every student that takes lessons at San Ramon Academy of Music.
In 2020 he also started the brand Powerful Piano to provide free learning resources and champion the power of classical music to minorities such as himself and other people that would not normally interact with it.
