Hey there! I'm Ixi Chen and together with my co-creators Nick Photinos and Ted Nelson, we play in orchestras, teach at universities, found and direct chamber ensembles, present at conferences, book, manage, produce, record and the list goes on. We've learned a lot along the way and we want to share it so you can create the life in music you dream of. That's why we built all this!

Now about you. All of our resources, programs and work with you are centered on our belief that in order to grow sustainably and intentionally, you must address many aspects of who you are. We are interested in helping you do meaningful work, understand the purpose behind your actions, overcome your fears and embrace the idea that with the right tools and support, a whole heck of a lot is possible. 

This work isn't always comfortable but boy is it worth it.
