You are this moment
"Life has a way of throwing a lot at you early on. Growing up in a large family with limited resources meant I had to learn quickly, experiencing both the beauty and the harsh realities of the world. Through it all, music became my constant anchor, a vital way to navigate the complexities of life, including the challenges of PTSD and other personal struggles.
For me, music isn't just a hobby; it's a lifeline. It's the space where I can feel the full spectrum of my emotions without being overwhelmed by them, a way to process the anxieties and depressions that sometimes cloud my days. I believe everyone faces their own battles, and my music is an offering – a way to connect with those who understand the weight of experience and the search for solace.
Whether through a melody, a lyric, a scream, or the strum of an instrument (I dabble in almost everything but the brass!), my goal is to communicate honestly and authentically. My musical journey has been unconventional – I was even politely asked to leave my first choir! But that only fueled my desire to express myself in my own way.
If you're drawn to music that speaks to the heart, the struggles, and the triumphs of being human, then I invite you to listen. This is my way of connecting, of sharing my journey, and hopefully, finding some common ground along the way."
