Poems from Asterisk

Asterisk's picture
Trained as a classical pianist for over a decade. Released two albums of originals. Performed in nearly 100 concerts. Logged in more than 700 hours of volunteer work. As the daughter of two {absolutely amazing} Romanian immigrants and a first generation college student, I’m determined to make my dreams come true. Music is my passion, the element of my life that empowers, influences, and inspires me. Through it, I developed the discipline to sit at a piano for hours at a time, the persistence to memorize pieces, and the diligence to recognize mistakes and fix them. I aspire to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston and Valencia, Spain and earn my Master in Scoring for Film, Television and Video Games and in Contemporary Performance. Whether I am creating music for films, working as a producer in a recording studio, or simply teaching a child how to play the piano, I want to keep the flame burning and help students explore their creative potential.
