I was a piano student at McGill who figured out he was no Rubinstein or Gould, and so sought to explore the canonical repertoire from a different angle. We could say I succeeded, as my fingers find themselves on a QWERTY keyboard rather than on the faux plastic ivories of the two grand pianos downstairs. I spend my days in blissful leisure, teaching a few lessons a week and otherwise spending my time absorbing art (jazz, cinema, literary criticism, my well-arranged room) and experimenting with creation (free improvisation, lyrical prose, metered poetry)‌. Lest one gains the passive impression that I am rich and unaware, I say outright that I am unbelievably privileged to be living with two hardworking parents and a compassionate brother. Without them, this would not have been the most productive and fulfilling year of my life.
