“I am often asked how many instruments I can play. My main instrument is the piano – I spent time as a concert pianist.”

I hope to create something that can bring you a little joy, in exchange for the joy I feel making music for you.

Being home with two babies has been challenging and fun, while trying to carve out an identity for myself beyond it.

I love to take the time to blend harmonies and give them depth.

I ask myself am I a mother, a musician, a model again one day perhaps. The answer is simply yes. A woman is many complex things.

I am often asked what my aspirations for my music are. Do I want to fill big stadiums? Do I want to be a star? I just want to touch a few people’s hearts and show my daughters that they can follow their dreams.

I hope to help make a better world for my daughters; to help break down the divides that still very much exist.

My mental space is when I get to a place of creativity, and I can just be myself while I am writing and connecting with the material.

Making music is so much fun.

Nothing is as glossy and perfect as it seems on social media.

“Small Voice” is a deeply personal song I wrote the lyrics and music for.

My father is a Baptist minister and my parents encouraged my music, always having me sing in front of an audience.

Small steps. I’ve been trying to treat myself better. I like to do my make up in the morning. I repeat some affirmations. Something for me.

A proud moment was my very first hater telling me you’ve got a great voice, please stop waving your hands around.

Lately, since I can’t run, I’ve been getting back into yoga. Feels good to take a few moments of peace for myself in the day.

Promises were made and broken. Only you could keep me open.

Small voice gave me everything when I had nothing. Small voice, changed my life, It haunts me every night.

We’re working out, watching Netflix and learning to play instruments. I think we’re doing a lot of self-development, and also just trying to stay active.

The great instrument of moral good is the imagination.

Fear is in almost all cases a wretched instrument of government, and ought in particular never to be employed against any order of men who have the smallest pretensions to independency.

The heart is a thousand stringed instrument that can only be tuned with love.

The soul is the effect and instrument of a political anatomy; the soul is the prison of the body.

People who talk well but do nothing are like musical instruments; the sound is all they have to offer.

I got a greater purpose. God put something in my heart to get across, and that’s what I’m going to focus on, using my voice as an instrument and doing what needs to be done.

Voting is the most powerful nonviolent tool or instrument that we have in a democratic society. And we must use it.
