Profile
Michael was born premature and suffered Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP), which inhibits the growth of his retinas causing total blindness. Besides his vision impairment, Michael is in the autism spectrum, limiting his academic and communication skills. Despite his disabilities, Michael's perfect pitch, extraordinary audio memory, and innate superb keyboard layout imaging allow him to move his fingers around the piano accurately.
Michael studies with 2 classical piano teachers: Mrs. Ivana Tjandra, since 2009 (The Jaya Suprana School of Performing Arts) and Mr. Randy Ryan, since 2022 (Bina Musik Jakarta).
