Classical Cultural Advocate

Violinist | Art Director | Founder

Advocating for social change through art & education.

Dialogue starts with music.

I Believe that...

we through the transformative power of artistic expression and quality education, can rewrite the narrative of the suffering artist and create strong social change.

For me true mastery emerges when we deeply engage in our studies, understand our artistic purpose, and forge our own path within or beyond classical traditions.

Violinist - Freelancer

I love to express myself through french and danish chamber music. I deeply cherish the danish and french composers, and enjoy sharing the historical connections between the two countries with the audience and fellow musicians. My inspiration for exactly this repertoire is generated from my everyday living in Paris, and because I think the two countries complement each other in beautiful ways.

Book a concert or masterclass !

My holistic

approach to classical musicianship centers around rediscovering our core motivations for making music, embracing values of excellence, craftsmanship, and authentic

expression.
