Audrey Hepburn is a huge influence on my style. She's classy, confident, and simplistic. She's a tomboy and also super feminine.

I love wearing dresses, but more simplistic, classic-looking dresses.

My dad had his own business and was extremely busy, but on a very rare occasion, he would play guitar and sing a bit. I was always fascinated by it. I wrote my first song in first grade because my dad was making songs up during those special moments, and it seemed like a fun thing to try myself.

I used to come home and play piano all day by ear and make songs up or figure out my favourite Elvis songs. I'd make up games by blindfolding myself and singing the harmony to whatever notes I'd play.

Growing up, I had a natural love for women like Diana Ross, Mary Wells, Ella Fitzgerald. Then I got into Dionne Warwick, Nina Simone, and Patsy Cline.

Music is all I've ever done.

I've never wanted to be like anybody else. I'm me.

I try as hard as I can to write from a personal place and be genuine.

I'm a real musician's musician: I get really geeky on chords and arrangements.

My path has been a little weird. I hope that it can inspire people.

I had to do so much self-searching and self-work and learning how to navigate in a world that seemed very mean.
