Tell us a little about you.
I am a singer, dancer, and actress and I have a new song called, Privacy that I’m so excited for my fans to hear!
What made you go in to music?
I always loved performing since a very young age. I was involved in competitive dance, voice lessons and performances around my state. It was always something I had a passion for and continued doing it throughout my life and am lucky enough that it’s my job now!
You just released your new single ‘Privacy’, tell us more about the song. What’s the meaning behind it?
I feel like this song doesn’t have just one meaning, it can be a little different depending on how you feel you relate to it. But, for me, it means making sure you are still making time for yourself even in a new relationship. Something that is very important and I think a lot of people can forget to do that!
Describe the track in two words.
Upbeat and catchy.
What was the recording process like?
Rozee and AC wrote this song for me and sent it over and fell in love with that and I was in the studio the next day recording it! They’re both extremely talented and so fun to work with.
Will we see a music video for the single? If so what can we expect from it?
Hopefully! Haven’t figured out a concept yet, but something fun!
Listen to Privacy
Will we see an EP or Album and if so, what can we expect?
I would love to release an EP by the end of the year. It would definitely consist of fun pop songs!
Do you have any shows coming up?
Not at the moment, but we’re planning some soon!
What else can we expect in 2019?
More music from me, for sure. I love being in the studio and creating and sharing. Also a couple of acting gigs 🙂
How do you get inspiration to write songs?
It’s always different and random for me! I could be sitting in a car and come up with some lines and so I’ll quickly write them down in my notes on my phone. Or at night when I’m in deep thought about things going on in my life currently or in the past, some cool things come out of that.
Where do you see yourself in 5 Years?
Still creating and making music and acting! Hopefully headlining a tour. I would also love to eventually start a skin care line as well as a clothing line! (fun fact: I studied fashion design in college)
When you’re not doing music, what do you like to do?
One of my favourite things to do is go to Disneyland! If you follow me on Instagram you’ll see I’m there quite often, haha. I also love working out – hiking or taking classes, and just hanging out with friends!
What’s the best advice you have ever been given?
Go after what you want and don’t stop until you get it. Don’t give up on anything that you love to do.
When you are at a gig, what are a few things you can’t go without?
Tea!!!
with manuka honey.
Great for the throat.
vocal steamer
my phone to listen to music
lavender oil/spray to keep my nerves in check
