the rhythm
MUSIC HELPS ME FOCUS, RESET, AND HAVE FUN.
Music gives me a different way to focus. I enjoy playing drums, mixing tracks, and sometimes finding ways to combine the two.
I have to listen closely, stay on beat, and keep adjusting.
Music is also one of the ways I relax and come back with more energy.

rhythm starts with listening
Drumming taught me to listen before I play. I have to keep a steady beat, pay attention to what is happening around me, and know when to add energy and when to hold back. I like how rhythm depends on both concentration and control.

dj mixing
i LIKE FINDING THE MOMENT WHEN DIFFERENT SOUNDS START TO FIT TOGETHER.
I use a Pioneer DDJ-400 and rekordbox to mix tracks and try different transitions, timing, and energy. Mixing makes me listen closely because even a small change in timing can change how one song flows into the next.

drum & dj
BRINGING TWO THINGS I ENJOY TOGETHER.
Drumming and DJ mixing feel very different to me. Drumming is more physical and happens right away, while DJ mixing is more about timing and how one sound connects to the next. I like combining them because it lets me try something new and make the performance feel more like my own.

K-Pop dance
For several years in elementary school, I went to a dance academy and learned K-pop choreography. I spent a lot of time practicing difficult routines and also performed on stage.
I do not spend as much time dancing now because my interests have moved toward other activities. But dance helped me become more comfortable performing in front of people, and I still enjoy the energy and rhythm I learned from it.
