I always wanted to sing. I didn't know how to do it. I didn't know how to make the singing thing happen.

My mother is Greek and my father is Bulgarian. I am a first-generation American and native Los Angeleno. I was born and raised in Hollywood.

Performing live actually thrills me. Just get me a stage, get me a mic, and I'm going to be happy.

Be fearless in trying new things, whether they are physical, mental, or emotional, since being afraid can challenge you to go to the next level.

The Greek side of me definitely loves a good meal, a lot of laughing, loud discussions.

I'm not trying to prove anything.
