About
I'm a cellist based in the Bay Area - homegrown in Palo Alto, living in the City, and occasionally venturing out into the South Bay and East Bay. I studied at Stanford with Chris Costanza and the St. Lawrence String Quartet while majoring in Human Biology and continued in the master's program at Juilliard with Fred Sherry. Having spent time in New York and Tokyo, I now freelance around the Bay while moonlighting as a data scientist at Airbnb.
