Zoe began learning the violin at the age of 5 in Taipei, Taiwan. When she moved to Calgary in 2002, she started professional training with the Conservatory at Mount Royal University. After her first year studies with Ella Magid, Zoe was referred to her present teacher, Bill van der Sloot. Mr. van der Sloot is the manager of The Conservatory Academy and Choral Programs who has established a reputation as a leader in the development of young artists in Canada. As a graduate of the Academy Program, Zoe has accomplished an intensive curriculum of musical studies that includes private lessons, masterclasses with guest artists from around the world, rehearsals, chamber music, and symphonic orchestra. Zoe is also an alumni of Mount Royal Chamber Strings, Conservatory Strings, and Calgary Youth Orchestra.
