If you want reach fans on-line definitely pay attention to things like hashtags and to what's trending at the moment. Try to connect to what's hot and to reach out to and to follow the right people. You never know who might re-tweet you and help you get some more followers.

I guess NBC must have noticed that one of my main staples is social media. So, when they approached me for The Voice, I thought "Why not be the first one to do it?"

The sun won't shine since you went away, seems like the rain's falling every day. There's just one heart, where there once was two; that's the way it's gotta be until I get over you.

Never give up. Never stop being creative in finding ways to get exposure. Also, prepared anytime and all the time. You never know who you will run into.

I moved here to California when I was 13 to pursue my acting career

I enjoy being happy every day, and hopefully you can hear my happiness in my music. Life is beautiful.
