Hobbies
My favorite types of music are jazz and academic. I have been composing since the age of 15 and just finished writing my first symphony. I have arranged/composed music for jazz bands, symphony orchestras, ska bands, reggae bands, big bands, brass quintets, and latin bands. In addition to music, I love sports (especially basketball), rollerblading, reading, and meeting new people. I am very excited to be in Beijing and learn the Chinese language and culture!
