Soheil Tayebi

Hey Everybody,

I’m Soheil, as you might have already known I come out of Great Falls, Virginia. In my opinion, I find the city of Great Falls spectacular. Great Falls puts you into an environment, where being outside is one of the best things you can do. Nonetheless, I’m always outside playing every sport I can think of. Whether it is, street hockey, or basketball, I enjoy the feeling that any sport gives me. Other than that and music, (what I came to Chicago for) I don’t really have too many dreams. My primary drive since I was in middle school has been to be a successful musician. I've been in a rock band for about 7 years now, and I have found that playing music is my biggest passion in life. I’m thrilled at what Columbia has to offer, and I’m excited to take as many opportunities as I can to get to where I want to be. The amount of talent in this school is overwhelming, and it makes things so much more exciting. I find this writing and rhetoric class as a big resource for me to hopefully strengthen in writing lyrics. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone this year.
