If you had to describe your music to a stranger in three words, which ones would you select?

Soulful, Transparent, and Empowering.

Congratulations on the completion and release of your EP "Connections"; tell us about your creative process for the six songs, and how long did it take to write and record overall?

Thank you so much. I always like to demo my songs before I go in to lay down the official vocals. It gives me an opportunity to try different ideas and really sit with the story I'm telling to make sure that my listeners are getting a complete picture.

I started working on the EP in December of 2020 right after I released my last full length album "In My MInd" (Listen HERE). It took me about 6 months to finish recording the songs and complete the lead music video.

What would you say the overall thematic concept of "Connections" is, and would you say that it is based on your personal experiences or your imagination?

It really is all about the vital role that the connections we have with ourselves and others play in relation to our growth and mental wellness. I knew that with this project I wanted to really get deep into the conversation and share stories that people could relate to in parallel to their own life circumstances. Musically, I wanted to fuse genres and create an environment that was soulful, edgy, and lyrical. The stories you hear are a mix of personal experience, life observation, and inner desire.

You're not just a talented artist and songwriter, but a model and actress as well. How do you juggle all of these responsibilities without compromising?

I really try to stay focused on my purpose which is to spread love and healing through my music and overall brand. I work to make sure that I maintain my integrity in everything I do. It's important for me to actually live my life as the light that I portray to others.

When someone hears the "Connections" EP for the first time, what do you want them to take away from the listening experience?

I want them to feel high vibrations and take away hope and inspiration. I want them to feel more self love and be encouraged to do the work required to heal themselves so that they can go from bad connection to strong connection in every aspect of their lives.
