I've always loved the fashion of the '30s and everything that came with the Art Deco era - the jewelry and the glamour.

It's the best feeling when you wake up and it's warm and cozy, and you don't have to go to work.

Too many times you come across lyrics that sound like you've heard them before or you can't really relate to them. And I think that I write songs that sound fresh and sensual in kind of a layered, lush way. But I also think that they are real, and that's why I wanted to call the record 'Inside Out.'

Never get your girlfriend a pet that she didn't know she was getting.

I think of Gisele Bundchen to get myself on the treadmill

Ideal date is doing something new, either hiking a new place I've not been, or learning something weird and new like pottery.... and then a meal.

Being yourself is one of the hardest things because it's scary. You always wonder whether you'll be accepted for who you really are. I decided to call my record 'Inside Out' because that's my motto about life. I don't think you ever succeed at trying to be anyone else but who you truly are.
