Yeji Cha-Beach is a producer, performing arts administrator, violinist, and founder & curator of Did You Hear, a live music series. As a first generation Korean immigrant, she’ll never forget the sense of empowerment and belonging that came from exercising her right to vote for the first time after becoming a U.S. citizen in her early 20s.
Yeji comes to HeadCount with over a decade of experience producing musical guests and the Emmy-nominated 8G House Band on NBC’s “Late Night with Seth Meyers”. Prior to Late Night, she honed her production, operations and communications skills at non-profit performing arts organizations like the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and Carnegie Hall.
Before deciding to work behind the scenes (and screens), Yeji trained as a classical violinist and used to have some impressive calluses on her fingers. In addition to her life in music, Yeji loves training for marathons & triathlons with SOMA Fox, her running club, and exploring the world with her husband, two young kiddos, and her dog, Parsley.
