When I was younger I really disliked Jazz. It went over my head and it reminded me of the days when my mom would take me to try on shoes at the Nordstrom Rack. It wasn't until later, late middle and early high school, that I really began to understand the passion and love for this genre. I began listening to artists such as Art Pepper, Cannonball Adderley, The Brecker Brothers and John Coltrane while slowly weaning myself of Kiss FM top 40's. A real appreciation and fascination for music and Jazz began to take shape, and a strong desire to prove that I could be as good as my male counterparts. My goal as a musician is to recreate a relatable moment or emotion in time and preserve it through the music I play and write. I am inspired by motion, sass, nostalgia, stories, people and the human experience.
