Biography

What has non-stop anime daydreams, an ear for musical momentum, a penchant for girl-bossing, and also maybe two(2) thumbs? It’s Julienne K. Tsang!

Self-acclaimed “Creator of Stuff”, Julienne simply cannot choose a single artistic discipline to dive into. From their arsenal of musical motifs to their shonen-action fight sequences, Tsang weaves never ending narratives into the ever changing mediums they choose.

Musically, their style is described as “chameleon-like”. The depth of their style ranges from cute singer-songwriter tunes to lush neo-classical pieces to ear ringing EDM. Though they often collaborate with filmmakers and animators, Tsang has also written music for established ensembles such as Sputter Box, Hypotenuse Trio, and Ensemble Decipher. Additionally, they have written their first full length musical On a Loop which is about a sad accountant that gets stuck in a time loop(get it?)

Artistically, they are heavily inspired by anime that got them through adolescence. With their self-taught skills, Tsang utilizes their spare time to produce their webcomic Seven Stars Silver Clouds, which is best described as The Office but If Everyone Had a Cool Weapon and The Apocalypse Was On Its Way.

Girl-bossing(as a verb, not the gender) their way through the industry, Tsang is also an arts administrator. With a strong desire to bolster fellow creators, Tsang has pursued multiple avenues from serving as the Chief Financial Officer at Trash Rats Theatre Collective, securing a position as a Development Associate at Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, to being the Founder of The Rose Court Arts Collective which strives to promote and produce multi-disciplinary works through a virtual space.

According to the State University of New York at Fredonia, Tsang graduated with a BM in Music Composition and a BA in Music-Entrepreneurship with a minor in Accounting which is a fancy way of saying they went to college to goof off.

Julienne has studied under Dr. Rob Deemer, Dr. Andrew Martin Smith, Dr. Paul Coleman, and Professor Jamie Leigh Sampson.
