I would tell people to enjoy the present moment and the journey rather than the outcome.

I feel most alive when I'm singing along to old gospel music.

My creative process involves reading books and magazines, writing outside, and moving around a lot. I like to pace around when I'm writing songs.

When you're a background singer, you're there to support the artist. The transition is up to the person. You have to follow your heart. You make life decisions that will affect what you really want to do. You put that kind of energy out, and you put it out aggressively. And if you work hard, you'll pave the way.

I love performing live, especially when I get in the zone. But the studio is really becoming a place I have grown to love.

Sunshine always inspires me.

I am passionate about making music that feeds the soul and brings people together.
