I am HAPAnese...
I'm destined to marry a drummer boy or a clown.
An inventor, a writer, or even a nice Jewish boy.
Even an actor or a vicar would be fine...
As long as he's a nice...that's all that matters
I am a Go Red For Women Ambassador and American Stroke Association Ambassador
You can read more about my music and advocacy work in a recent article published by the American Stroke Association here
I created the genre of Alternative-Classical music. There was no place for the music I wrote, so I made my own place.
I am also co-founder of EastWestNow Records, the first record label in the world that promotes artists who are Asian-American, with a primary focus of half-Asian. We were profiled in a Classical Music Magazine in the UK called MUSO.
Before my career in music, I was a box jumper...the youngest in the world, and a legend among magicians.
I got a bad attitude when it comes to magic, and if you don't believe me when I say so, visit The Magic Cafe, I seem to have a following there.
buy my CDs...because I don't want to get a real job.
Visit my Dad's space and watch him do his magic here.
