Minseo Kim, also known as Reina, is currently a second-year student at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where she is pursuing a double major in Music Performance and Economics. Her pipe organ studies at UCLA are under the guidance of Dr. Christoph Bull.
Minseo's musical journey began at a young age of four years old under the guidance of her mother, Kyongmin Kim. Initially, she learned to play the piano, which sparked her interest in the pipe organ. At the age of ten, she started her organ studies and continued to develop her skills and passion for the instrument.
In pursuit of her musical education, Minseo attended the Summer @ Eastman High School Organ Academy and became a student at the Juilliard School of Music's pre-college program, where she studied under the tutelage of Dr. Matthew Lewis.
Aside from her dedication to music, Minseo finds joy in various activities during her free time. She enjoys dancing, reading, and engaging in conversations with her mother and sisters.
