The studio work that I do allows me to connect with people around the world. You can't perform live for everyone, so having the ability to share my creative vision with others is very important to me as well.

I realize it's possible in ways both large or small to make a difference in someone's life.

I think that love is very important and exists in many forms for all of us.

Of all the forces that are exerted on us over our lifetime, at least for me, love has been the most powerful of all.

Continuing to create music and perform is so important to me for many reasons. I love the interaction and connection I get with people when we perform live. Nothing is more rewarding for me.

I tend to stay up very late at night, so I wake up later in the day. This allows me to be in the middle of my workday when I am onstage at night.

It’s a cliché - but true - that life is not a dress rehearsal. You get to do it once, so do it well.
