I think my style revolves around the philosophy that less is more, that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. That goes for my taste in design and in clothes, and even affects the way I approach music. I'm all about keeping things simple, and minimal, but being able to convey something powerful through that approach.

Never give up and never conform.

Lost in this young world, I'm just trying to navigate See the pie sliced, I'm just trying to grab a plate.

I just always wanted a platform. In the past, I always dreamed of having a following and a fan base - you know, a group of people just listening and paying attention to what I was making. I think the reality kicked in that you have to make a living so that you have enough time to keep creating, you know? 'Cause if you're not making a living at this, then you're making a living working another job, and if you're working another job, you're spending all your time doing that and can't put enough time into the music.

It's important to push yourself to get better at your craft - whatever that is. It's important to grow and evolve with each project.

Nothing tops making a living off your passion.

In my dorm room, I was a hermit making music, I've always had a sense of urgency that I don't have forever to make this happen.
