Living Her Best Life When did you first get into music? I’ve never NOT been doing music, so I don’t know if I’d say “get into”, but more so when did I start making a career out of it. That being said, I would think I started in music when I was 14 and wrote my first song.

Who or What inspired you to pursue a career in music? Honestly, I don’t think I ever intended to do anything else with my life, it’s been the one thing I have always been completely and totally enamored with and which the passion for has never faded. I think the thing that inspired me the most to become a musician is the connectivity that music can have for people. The way that despite people being so different, we can all relate to ONE SINGLE SONG and that’s incredible to me… that words and melodies one person wrote can be felt in the hearts of so many others.
Describe your style of music. I like to describe my music style as simply chaotic, because for the life of me I can’t stay in a single genre. Currently, though most of my music that I’m writing falls into the Pop-Punk category, kind of along the lines of No Doubt and The Cranberries. How has your music evolved since you first started in the music industry? Well, my writing has gotten better for one. lol. When I first really got started in the music industry my music was a little more basic, I let other people have a lot more influence on how I wrote, so it was a little more “normal” sounding. Now, my music has a bit more of a flare. I use different, more unusual time signatures and I’m no longer afraid to have my songs be super word-y.
