My father taught me that one of the most important abilities in life is to be able to take the pain and persevere, and for years this lesson had served me well.

I just would use any instrument known to man in any combination as long as it describes an emotion.

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

In Greek, we do not use just one word for love. We have many words that are specific to each type of love.

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.

There are so many messages and lessons that I have been taught that I would want to share with people. Perhaps one that is very present in my mind now is the concept that we are all living on this one tiny planet that we call Earth. It is very small and is not getting any bigger, but the amount of people living on this planet continues to grow at a rapid rate.

While most of the music I write is instrumental, I love to use the human voice as another instrument.
