Youth Venture

Born in Manila, PI in 1987 and raised in Seattle, WA; Vanessa Stone is currently attending the University of Washington with plans to major in Business Administration and minor in Music.

As a child, Vanessa Stone's family noticed that she was really into music. She would sing anywhere and anytime. She then attended after school music programs; and when she got to elementary school, she joined the choir, where she fell in love singing with other people.

During her freshmen year of high school, she began to admire instruments, particularly the piano. Self-taught in playing the piano, her skills continue to improve. Vanessa's love for music has also led her to different genres and elements of music. She is inpired by her community, underground art, pop cultures, and creative minds.
