Having performed regularly as a singer-songwriter at a multitude of venues including the late Bootleg Theater, 626 Night Market, and art galleries/pop-ups, she is actively booking shows in Los Angeles.

She writes and records original music for professional projects: examples include Cannes Indie Shorts Best Horror Short "Who Goes There" (from Emmy-nominated “Yo Gabba Gabba” director Matt Fackrell) and Purple Mattress’ 5-Year-Anniversary commercial, featuring 30 seconds of original song “On the Edge of The Earth.”

At Berklee College of Music, HAI KU learned how to conceptualize and market artists by means of merchandise, tour-planning, pitching to radio stations, media planning, and more. She deepened her knowledge of Logic Pro and learned how to utilize and customize digital instruments, implement modulation, mixing and mastering, and other production essentials. In arts boarding school, she received an annual merit scholarship to study literature, and received the Scholastic Silver Key Award in the Short Story category. Majoring in Creative Writing, she has workshopped under the advisement of dozens of established novelists, poets, and screenwriters.
