My new question was, What do you do when your dreams come true? My answer was: Find new ones.

Everything great that has ever happened to humanity has begun as a single thought in someone's mind, and if anyone of us is capable of such a thought, then all of us has the same capacity, capability, because we're all the same.

I have been fortunate to have a career that has allowed me to travel the world and come in contact with many different cultures and people.

My goal is to connect with people emotionally. I take life’s experiences and translate them into music — music that hopefully creates an impact on the listener.

Perhaps the most important contribution to me being centered in the midst of this chaos is my daughter, Krystal Ann. I am very lucky because she works with me and is responsible for many aspects of the business on the marketing side of my career. This allows us to travel together and experience life on the road, seeing the world. Having family with me is very important and grounding.

I believe we're responsible for everything that happens to us.

I'd decided to take the risk, and either I'd succeed or else.
