"I have never been able to call myself one genre.
I have always been interested in a vast variety of music that calls to me.
My original music and the type of music I like to perform is a complex
and beautiful mix of contemporary pop, soul, and jazz.
When listening to artists such as Melody Gardot, Lianne La Havas,
and Emily King, we find more than just one genre in their beautifully crafted songs.
We find soul, feel, and realness that so many people have forgotten about
in this social media craze of cookie cutter pop culture.
I stand next to and admire artists like Maggie Rogers, John Mayer,
and Bruno Mars who strive to make a huge difference in the way
people hear music in the mainstream world. My goal is to do just that.
I hope to inspire hearts and bring emotions from within.
Music is my absolute passion and I am so thankful to be apart of it all."
