Yuna Kang

Yuna is a recent graduate of Case Western Reserve University, where she earned bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Sociology on the pre-law track, with minors in Music and Japanese.

She began studying piano and violin at the age of ten, studying piano with Snezana Krstic and violin with Ikuko Whitehouse. During her time at CWRU, she continued her musical journey as a collaborative pianist through the university's joint programming with the Cleveland Institute of Music, studying with CIM faculty and performing chamber music in a variety of ensembles.

In 2020, she co-founded Bridge to Music with her brothers with the goal of giving back to the community that made her own musical education possible. Since then, she has helped grow Bridge to Music into a network of students, mentors, and musicians dedicated to expanding access to music education, and she currently serves as the organization’s Board Chair.

Outside of music, Yuna has remained deeply involved in advocacy and service. She competed on the CWRU Mock Trial team from 2022-2026, earning several team and individual awards, and served on the executive board in various roles. She also worked as a campus tour guide and Spartan Ambassador, mentoring under-resourced and first-generation high school students through the college admissions process.

Yuna has also volunteered and interned with the Legal Aid Society of Cleveland throughout 2025 in its Economic Justice Group, supporting vulnerable communities through legal advocacy. She remains passionate about using music, education, and advocacy as tools for community empowerment.
