I warm up with my mom and make sure I understand what the songs are about, and make sure I'm using the right technique. To be honest with you, I really don't practice a lot... Usually I say a prayer and ask the Lord to sing with me and help me and stand on the stage with me.

I look up to Andrea Boccelli and Sarah Brightman. The best part about 'America's Got Talent' was performing with her!

I would like to sing for the Pope. And the Queen, and at Simon Cowell's wedding.

Singing is my main goal, and I think philosophy will help me write songs.

I'm not going to choose between classical, Broadway or pop. I would love to stay where I am now - a mix of everything.

I write about heartbreak because I like writing about sad things, but I'm writing happy songs, too!

I miss my friends in public school, but it's kind of a part of something that you have to give up. I'd rather perform than go to public school.
