My first impression of ARUCAD was filled with excitement—it was the university I had always dreamed of. The city can be quite busy, especially on work and school days, but it offers a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere. I have been passionate about music since childhood, playing the piano and singing. At 17, I started playing the violin. Studying Sound Arts Design allows me to turn my love for music into a professional career.
