He is among the very few Asian pianists who had the opportunity to record with Ornette Coleman, an experience that deeply shaped his musical identity.

earned his B.A. in Jazz Studies from Temple University and his M.M. in Jazz Performance from Queens College, CUNY. His compositional and arranging work spans small ensembles to large jazz orchestras, and his writing has been performed in the U.S., Japan, and Europe. He has contributed articles and analyses to Jazz Japan and has served as a guest lecturer and ensemble coach.

As an educator, has taught as Adjunct Faculty at York College, CUNY, where he instructed courses in jazz piano, improvisation, and ensemble playing. He also taught for one semester at Boston University, coaching young musicians at one of the most respected summer programs in the U.S.

Beyond his musical career, is active as a rail photographer, gaining recognition for work that captures the visual rhythm of metropolitan life. His photography has been featured by NYC Tourism, presented by the Center for Railroad Photography and Art, and shared by major transit agencies including the MTA, Metro-North Railroad, and Long Island Rail Road.

Music is a beautiful thing that today can be anything from a brief escape from reality, to a passion, to a hobby to enjoy. I help people learn about all types of music, and aid them in forging their own relationship with it. Experienced in many different genres and styles, I seek to expand people's musical views and show them that regardless of who you are, where you're from and what you do, music can be whatever you want it to be for you, and it's my job to help you figure out what that is and find what your passion in music is.
