Stay true to who you are, even though that sounds cliché. It's something that's important - doing what feels right for you.

YouTube was a way for people to hear me and for me to say, "Hey, I can sing this song, I'm not in front of you yet because I'm too shy, but here's how I sound for now."

I feel people are seeing me as a true artist rather than a singer, or an entertainer, or a girl who just makes songs.

No matter what I put out, no matter what genre - because I feel like I'm going to experiment with everything - I hope people will see that it's true to me, that it's honest, and nobody ever thinks that I'm inauthentic.

Stay true to who you are, even though that sounds cliché. It's something that's important - doing what feels right for you.

With different scenarios and different places, I think it's easier for me to get inspired; I'm seeing different things.

As a kid I would always be in my bedroom constantly staring at the same four pink walls in it, aspiring to do all of these things. I had big dreams, and my dreams were bigger than what my life was at the time. I didn't understand why my life wasn't more interesting, but I was so oblivious to life outside of my bedroom because I was always there. I had to go about living my dreams.
