Own Words

I am a Korean American who grew up in Albuquerque, NM. As you can imagine my city had a tiny Korean population and I believe I was maybe one of the few Koreans and Asians at my high school. Living in places void of Asians, I made the jump to a super urban and diverse place in NYC mostly to pursue music.

I’ve been playing in a duet (cello + drums) called LIVE FOOTAGE in NYC. Check our website livefootagebrooklyn.com
