Anything else you’d like to share:

I was honored to perform in Japan last summer with the Governor’s School for the Arts through the Japan Education Cultural Center.  Our goal was to promote peace through educational and artistic exchanges.  I lived with two Japanese families, which was a very rewarding adventure to actually experience their everyday culture and family life.  We will be friends forever with frequent conversations on the email.
