The child of two violinists, Mira began her own violin studies at age six with Olga Zolotareva in Belgium. Aged nine, she won third prize at the “Night in Madrid” International Youth Music Competition and made her solo debut a year later with the Bruocsella Symphony Orchestra. In 2013, she was awarded a music scholarship to Wellington College, UK, where she studied with Susanne Henwood and earned her ATCL diploma with distinction in 2014. Mira graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Music from the Boston Conservatory at Berklee, studying under Markus Placci. She is currently completing her Master of Music at the Royal College of Music, where she has studied with Maciej Rakowski and Leonid Kerbel.

As an artist and a performer, Mira’s mission is to provide an emotionally affective experience for her audience through exciting repertoire, and she is committed to looking beyond the traditional canon, and its preferred composers, in order to do so. As a founding member of the Jasmine Quartet, she further committed to this mission in a chamber music setting: championing new repertoire for the string quartet canon and prioritizing collaboration with young composers as an ensemble. She is dedicated to this work in her personal playing as well. Furthermore, her Korean heritage largely influences her artistic mission; Mira dedicated her Masters research lecture-recital to the compositional style of Isang Yun, and one day she hopes to found an ensemble dedicated entirely to performing music by Korean composers, both old and new.
