Musician and Medical Student

Season 3 - Episode 25: I started learning piano when I was 4 years old. I then I went through different instruments. Some of them were self-taught, some of them I went and learned from other people. Ultimately, it all culminated when I was in college. I was a part of a competitive dance team and acapella team (both of which were South Asian fusion). This really allowed me to see what creating music was about, the type of genres various music entails, and the ability to create music for people who represent a multitude of identities, not just one identity. I think I am at my best when there's many things happening in my life. So it made sense for me to try and do both music and medical school, but for as long as I can. I'm just really blessed to be able to do it right now while I'm in medical school, and I can continue creating and continue to see how I can make an impact.
