KEN CASTILLO

ABOUT ME
I am a 17 year old high school senior working as a musician and teacher in the Seattle area. I've been playing music for 12 years and have experience both teaching and preforming. When I graduate high school I hope to be able to go to music school and further my career as a musician. Thank you to all those who support my work!
