If you write songs and if you write music that's very sincere and very honest, it's pop music, but it is pop music with a lot of honesty and a lot of heart.

It happened in Miami, in Coral Gables, a great big ol' Cuban wedding. It was pretty intense.

If there was any other place I would live, other than Miami, it would be California. It's beautiful. The weather is just gorgeous, I love being here, too.

Even before I became a recording artist, I did other things in music. I was a teacher, I did studio work, and I was an arranger and a producer.

A real active music set, based and really concentrated on what the music's all about. That's what I'm all about - singing and a really good strong music set.

I grew up in a community that was bilingual. I've done it for a while, singing in both languages.

I have a bachelor's and a master's in jazz.
