This week's topic is "Eye-opening experience at Berklee College of Music"I graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2015. Berklee is like a musician version of the United Nations, where musicians around the world come together and learn music, making music together. During Berklee, I've made so many wonderful friends and learned so many things BUT, today I would like to talk about ONE special event, that opened my eyes and changed my perspective, forever."Privilege Walk" exercise: https://youtu.be/hD5f8GuNuGQ

Today's topic is "Music for Peace Between Russia and Ukraine"
One of my students asked me today "Is the UK going to have a war with Russia?" Since it's an ongoing topic that affects our world today, I thought of sharing my own perspective as a musician whose goal is to make a positive impact on our society through music.

Today's topic is finding a purpose. I'd like to share my experience that changed my reason and purpose for doing music and that led me to do what I do today and also brought me out of depression.
