Background:

With the introduction of an after school program called String Project, Los Angeles, founded by Robert Anderson and Jacob Szekely, Mica began expanding her musical horizons by playing popular music, and studying improvisation.

Later she studied with world renowned violinist Phillip Levy, and USC Thornton Professor Robert Anderson. When performing with the Los Angeles Youth Orchestra, she performed at Carnegie Hall and went on tour in Vienna and Prague.
