Performance Art, Creative Expression and Volunteer Work

Performance Art | Creative Expression

With 20 years of experience playing the violin up to Grade 8 level, a deep appreciation for musical expression and the joy of performance is developed. The passion for the arts extends beyond music into painting, where visual storytelling is used to inspire and uplift others. Through both mediums, I strive to bring beauty, joy, and emotional connection to the community, using creative expression as a way to enrich lives and foster meaningful experiences.


Volunteer Work

Motivated by a great desire to serve and encourage others, I am very interested in volunteering, especially when it comes to assisting children with special needs and people dealing with mental health issues. I'm dedicated to establishing a kind and welcoming atmosphere where each child is respected, understood, and inspired to flourish. Using my abilities in music, art, and interpersonal communication, I hope to use my commitment to service to give those in need emotional support, creative involvement, and a sense of connection while promoting happiness, self-assurance, and wellbeing.
