What inspired you to get into music?

I am inspired to make music by my love for creative collaboration with other artists and for how music can bring people together, stir emotions, and make people want to move their bodies.

How would you describe your music?
My music is high-energy dance music with a tropical vibe, including heavy drums and electronic elements.

What would you say is your recording and songwriting style?
My recording style is electro-pop, with a focus on rich tapestries of synth-driven instrumentals combined with powerful vocals and harmonies. My songwriting style is expressing vulnerability through lyrics about love and loss with a catchy and memorable melody and chorus lines.

In the next 5 years I hope to perform for live audiences with a dynamic stage act.
