About me
I was born in Vienna Hietzing in 2004 as the second of three children. I started piano lessons at the age of six. Over time, I discovered the joy of composing and had composition lessons with Hans G. Kitzbichler at the Johann Sebastian Bach Music School (JSBM) from 2017 to 2022. Since October 2022 I have been studying composition with Gerald Resch and since October 2023 instrumental pedagogy (IGP) piano with Cornelia Herrmann at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw).
