Born in the Ukraine, Karolina's parents brought her to the United States in 2015 so she could be classically trained in the violin. She then began busking in 2017 on the streets of California.
Not only did Karolina captivate audiences with her music but even garnered attention from The Ellen Show, too. When Ellen asked Karolina if she liked performing in the streets, she giggled with a resounding, “Yes.” Karolina also appreciates the generosity she has been shown and is saving up all her money for college and a puppy!
