As a strong believer in the life-changing power of music, my teaching is driven by my purpose to serve and empower students of all backgrounds to realize their full potential and to leave a positive impact on the lives of others. Currently a doctoral candidate in brass performance at Boston University, I have studied under the tutelage of some of the leading artists from the New York Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. As a performer, I have made appearances in the United States, Canada, Singapore, Thailand, Mainland China, Taiwan, Macau and Hong Kong. My recent career highlights have included a Canadian solo debut with the University of British Columbia Chamber Orchestra at Vancouver and an acceptance to the distinguished Pacific Region International Summer Music Association Festival. As an educator, I specialize in teaching trombone at all levels. I first began my teaching career when I was a freshman in my hometown Hong Kong, where I maintained a modest private studio and taught at a number of local elementary and middle/high schools. In recent years, I am enlisted on the rosters of multiple music centers online and in the Greater Boston area, and have accumulated more than 10 years of teaching experience with a private studio of 10+ students. In addition, given my international background, I am naturally comfortable in guiding students with diverse ethnic and musical upbringing. I can teach fluently in three languages (English, Mandarin and Cantonese) and am decently equipped for online teaching whenever necessary.
