For me music has always been a way to escape the world. I can remember listening to my father's songs as a child, dancing to the music of the Smiths and singing to whatever song was on the radio.

At age 5 I started having piano lessons but I got bored of playing other people’s music quickly and started making up melodies on my own. When I started having voice lessons at age 11, I also started writing songs. This helped me a lot to get through a really rough part of my life later.

As my voice teacher always encouraged me to sing more outside of my classes, I started performing at school musicals, at relatives birthdays, in the streets and even at my own prom.

I would describe my music as folk-y acoustic pop with a lot of feelings and emotions in it.

For the future I hope that one day I can help someone else with my music as much as other artists were able to help me, when I was struggling in life.
