I love Nicoletta Ceccoli , and I love Tim Burton movies. So those are like my biggest inspirations I think.

My favorite performance would definitely be "Toxic," which was my blind audition song. It was the start of it all and it was a song I had been covering before the show, so it was very dear to my heart.

I love directing my music videos and writing video treatments, and I think it's all just because I love the visual aspect of it as well.

Probably "Mrs. Potato Head" or "Training Wheels". "Mrs. Potato Head" because it was the hardest song to write and it took me a while to finish it and feel good about the lyrical content. But I've had that idea in my head for so long, especially the visuals - pulling apart a Mrs. Potato face and how that doubled as a meaning for plastic surgery. "Training Wheels" because it's the only love song on the album.

I definitely fall in love quickly, and I'm very in love with being in love. But it is hard for me to write about love.

There are a lot of people who go their whole lives without truly knowing what love is, or ever experiencing that.

I obviously have a different connection to each song in a different way, and they all mean something different to me.
