Master Violin Teacher

  • B.A. Violin Performance; John Hopkins University

  • M.A. Violin Performance; San Francisco Conservatory of Music (2024)

"As someone who grew up in Fremont, Anita is thrilled to be returning to her hometown to teach at Cadence Academy of Music! She is currently completing the last year of her Master of Music in Violin Performance at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where she currently studies with Joseph Maile. She graduated from the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University with a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance under the tutelage of Herbert Greenberg, who was the former concertmaster of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. 

 

While in Baltimore, she also took advantage of the world-renowned medical labs at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and shadowed multiple researchers on their studies on the effects of Music Therapy on the brain in patients with neurodegenerative diseases. She plans to dedicate more time to her curiosity on the correlation between science and music in the next few years! But before all that, she began her humble musical journey as a passionate student who also played the piano and the flute!

 

Anita began teaching young violinists during high school and has grown to love teaching younger children to help them develop lifelong skills in music proficiency! What began as a high school job became a pedagogical passion she brought to Baltimore during her undergraduate studies, and back to the Bay Area for her graduate degree. 

 

Outside of musical devotions, diversifying her plant collection is a high-priority - Anita is always on the lookout for new plant species! She also likes trying new things - pottery wheel-throwing just might be her new favorite activity! While on the go, graphic animation is her go-to activity to help time pass on the plane!"
