He has appeared as a soloist with several orchestras across his native Southern California and in 2011, Kevin was invited to perform in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall. Most recently, he was a featured performer on NPR’s radio broadcast From the Top and subsequently participated in a music video with Time for Three.

Kevin is a student of Danielle Belen at the Colburn School in Los Angeles and during recent summers he has studied at both Center Stage Strings and the Ishikawa Music Academy in Japan. He will attend Perlman Music Program this coming summer. Kevin plays on a Joseph Rocca violin on generous loan from The Mandell Collection of Southern California.
