Eddie has also had a passion for the violin since he was a child. His love for the violin grew as the years went by and still perfected his skill through college.

His goal is for his students to incorporate the same love for music as he has also developed with the violin. His favorite piece is Wieniawsky: Capriccio-Valse.
