He has collaborated with numerous orchestras and performed at celebrated concert venues throughout Asia, Europe, and the United States.

Born in Phoenix, Arizona, and raised in Taiwan, Lin graduated from the Curtis Institute of Music and the Juilliard School, where he studied with Aaron Rosand and Lewis Kaplan, respectively. He is an alum of CMS’s Bowers Program.
