Her music has been described as “incomparable” “soulful” “breathtaking” and “unlike anything most have heard”. With her technique of combining genres hinting from past sounds to present, she courageously pushes the envelope by creating new uncharacteristic sounds pulled from the depth of sources both internal and external. Her philosophy that she carries and showcases inside her music is "the ever flowing changes of the human dilemma" and hopes that by sharing her experiences through song that others will have a light to look up to, but most importantly, they will have the strength and courage to be the ones to make change. Her mission statement lies in breathing life into others, and being the powerhouse for all. |
Incomparable, soulful, breathtaking!”
