Hi, I’m Edward Lee. I’m a senior at the Bergen County Academies in New Jersey and a violist at Juilliard Pre-College, where I study with Professor Sophie Arbuckle. Music has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember, from chamber groups at school to performing with NYO-USA. At the same time, I care a lot about expanding access to learning. I lead literacy and education projects that support students in under-resourced communities, and I’m always looking for ways to bring together my interests in art, research, and civic engagement. My goal is to help make education feel more open and inclusive for every child.
