My musical journey began with piano lessons at a children's music school, where I studied for seven years. My parents took me for an audition when I was five, and the teachers noted even then that I had perfect pitch. However, I didn't officially enroll in the music school until I was seven, graduating at fourteen. After that, I picked up the guitar—an instrument I haven't put down since. I used to play various songs for friends in the neighborhood; I was always the center of attention because I sang well and stayed perfectly in tune. Although I never had formal guitar training, my ear for music and general musical skills allowed me to easily figure out and play many songs. During my university years, I played in a rock band called "Elegia," and while participating in archaeological expeditions each summer, I would perform daily acoustic sets by the campfire. I still play and sing as an amateur and compose my own music, recording on non-professional equipment while creating arrangements and processing the audio on my computer. As someone who has worked in IT for over twenty years, I am now taking full advantage of the amazing opportunities offered by AI.
