She has performed at venues ranging from the Hotel Café in Los Angeles to Rockwood Music Hall and the Bitter End in New York. She also sang on a song that was used in a Netflix movie. Her YouTube channel has over 14,000 subscribers and she was awarded a full scholarship to Berklee College of Music as a violin virtuoso.
“When I’m writing… I don’t think about anything. I just kind of, I’m just feeling, I’m just kind of expressing myself, as any artist can understand. You’re just letting it go.”
“Violin is definitely my primary (instrument). Guitar is a new thing I recently picked up… Piano I play a little bit… So, at my shows I have my full band, I’m singing and playing violin.”
“I’ve written most of my songs on the violin… I’ve written a few songs on piano, a couple songs on guitar… and lots of songs I write without an instrument. I just hear it in my head.”
“That was the most mind blowing, unbelievable thing that’s ever happened to me in my career, probably in my whole life.”
“When I got to Berklee (College) it was like a musical playground… It was the coolest thing ever.”
“I was in a mariachi band. I played jazz. I played bluegrass. I played everything. And then I started writing songs.”
“There’s days where I miss classical music, but I still incorporate it in my music today.”
“I think that anything that we’re pursuing in the creative arts can be challenging in multiple ways, and if you love what you do then you just gotta keep doing it.”
“I didn’t really choose to quit classical and go into pop. It was chosen for me.”
“It was my first time on a TV show and the fact that it was original music is what made me agree to do it.”
