I want people to be able to relate to the music, to enjoy the music, in a sense of it being fun and interesting and maybe kind of quirky. I want people to be impacted by the story.

A lot of people forget that their individuality is what makes them so special. Growing up, there's a lot of pressure to be normal. but normal isn't as fun as being yourself. And it's those things about you that really draw people to you.

I really like 'This Side of Paradise' by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I think it's a cool description of a character.

The biggest klutz would be myself, so if I could offer help to myself I would. I’m the most off my game most often.

There's a reason why bullying takes such a strong form online. People don't have to push back as much as they would in real life.

I have enjoyed writing songs for so long... it felt like in order to make music that I could relate to myself, I would have to be a part of the writing process.

I really do like Bruno Mars. I think he's very good. And I love Maroon 5.
