Amber Jiang

San Francisco,CA

Summary

My name is Amber (Hanwen) Jiang. I am a composer and also a music producer. I write soundtracks for movies, commercials, and promos, and I also create some indie music of my own style. Music is like family to me, it's an integral part of my life. Through music, I can convey emotions and tell stories. All of my emotions, experiences and memories can be expressed and preserved through music. I have studied music since I was a child, and can play the traditional Chinese instrument - guzheng, as well as some piano and cello, and during college, my major was music performance.
