Jamison Maguire, age 16, lives on San Juan Island, Washington, and is a sophomore at Spring Street International School. Jamison began his piano studies at age six, studying with Elena Nikulin in Vancouver, Washington.

At age nine he and his family decided to travel the world for two years, and he took an extended break from piano. A few years later, at age 12, he heard one of his teachers at school play Clair de Lune and was so inspired that he tried to learn it on his own the moment he got home. Since then his piano obsession has only grown.

For the past four years he has studied remotely with his grandmother Jackie Patricia – a lifelong piano teacher in Madison. Jamison also studied piano at Interlochen Arts Camp and Idyllwild Arts Summer Piano Intensive. When he is not playing piano, he plays on the varsity soccer team and enjoys coding.
