About

Hello! I am a violinist and composer who loves chamber music, painting, reading, writing, and nice conversations. I am originally from France and moved to the Unites States a few years ago to study at Yale. I recently fell in love with California's beauties and moved to San Francisco. I look forward to meeting music lovers through Groupmuse!
