1. Describe your musical style in six words or less
High energy, diverse, emotional and honest. 

2. Your new single, Kryptonite, is very raw emotionally and well-written. Describe the writing process.
It was definitely an emotional one. I had been dating someone who was very non-committal and had me feeling like I was on an emotional roller coaster ride and I had to pour my emotions into a song so one night I just sat there in the thick of my emotions and poured my heart onto the paper and got my feelings out. I took what I had into my writing session with my co-writers Donny Anderson and Murray Daigle and we had a big therapy session and "Kryptonite" was born. I had a very specific intention with this song and writing session knowing what I wanted to say and the vibe of the song and Murray was amazing at bringing the song to life with production. 

3. What's been the highlight of your music career?
A cross Canada tour in 2018 with my first pop album "Unbreakable". I love performing and that was my first tour, a great learning experience and it helped me grow as an artist. 

Also, my recent nominations for the MARTY awards, Mississauga Music Awards and getting on the second ballot for Rising Star with the CMAOntario awards last year.
I am grateful for every opportunity that I have been fortunate to have had and am excited for what’s ahead.

4. Do you write music or lyrics first?
I always start a song with a story or intention and that usually leads into lyrics before music. 

5. What succinct advice do you have for up and coming artists?
Stay true to yourself. There is only one you so don't try to be anyone else; focus on what makes you unique. If it’s something you truly want, never give up no matter what someone else says or what the negative voices in your head may say. Believe in yourself and keep growing as a person and as an artist. Educate yourself as much as possible, do your research before hiring people for your team because there are vultures out there who still take advantage of artists unfortunately. 

6. What do the next 12 months look like for you musically?
I am hoping to release my debut album in Spring 2022. It is something that I have been working on for over two years and have been putting off until things are fully open and I can tour and promote the album. I hope to be able to book as many shows as possible with things reopening.
There might be something special being released before the end of the year ;) 

7. With your previous songs "Cry" and "Burning Bridges" achieving tremendous success, what pressure does that put on you for upcoming songs?
I think I always put pressure on myself with every single release. I work hard and put my blood, sweat and tears into my music, so each song has a special piece of my heart and there is always pressure to do better. I have big goals and I want to reach as many people as I can and be able to perform in stadiums, so the pressure is always on when it comes to getting myself there. 

8. Is there anything you'd change in your musical journey?
Everything happens for a reason and I try to live my life with no regrets. 

However, I would really love to have not been previously scammed by a manager and a publicist as it cost me thousands of dollars and those were really hard lessons.  Independent artists are oftentimes taken advantage of.

9. What four things bring you happiness?
Nature, my dog Aria, my friends/family and my boyfriend.
