About Max

I am a classically trained pianist. Originally from China, moved to Connecticut as a Fulbright Scholarship recipient for graduate school studies at The Hartt School. I now live in NYC with a puppy – Coco! I love all forms of music, arts, travel, and skydiving. Outside of work, you can find me in concert halls, museums, or on my way to an airport.
