Notable Guest Quotes

"Who am I as a storyteller just to only share about the positive things going on in your life?  It's important to share about them and to sing about them but that's not all that we go through in life."

"When I release a song, I don't just think about the music.  I'm also thinking about the visual aspects of it and the story that goes behind it."

"Growing up I was a big fan of musicals, so, for me, when I see a song playing I kind of see that whole performance happening.  So, it is kind of like an unfolding process as I am writing the song, thinking about what the music video is going to look like and how the song would almost look like if you're acting it out and expressing it on a stage."

"I started posting these demos online and that's what connected me to my current manager, who helped introduce me to different producers and helping me to get shows."

"It is all about finding your niche and developing your sound and that's not something that happens, like, over a summer or whatever.  It does take years to kind of gradually form your own sound because when you're younger you're so used to singing other people's songs and doing cover songs."

"I find that every song that I release I do grow more as an artist and I kind of get better knowing what kind of music that I want to release."

"It's not just about the numbers because with Spotify and everything you say, 'Oh, I have so many thousand of streams,' but, to me, what I value more than that is when I see, like, little kids on TikTok making dances with my song, and just having those individual videos with that one person who's enjoying themselves listening to my music is just what makes it worthwhile even if it's just one person."
