I write raw, resonant anthems that turn emotion into melody—fearless lyrics, genre-fused sound, and stories that stick with you

Who or what is your musical inspiration?
"I'm inspired by voices that shake souls—Janis, Stevie, Billie, Florence, Gaga. Legends and rebels. But deeper than names, I’m moved by the power of music to heal. I write to remind people they’re not alone, that their voice matters. Music is medicine, and I’m just here to pass the dose to anyone who needs it."
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
"Global Citizen wouldn’t just be a dream—it would be a soul-shaking moment. I make music to heal, to liberate, to remind people they matter. This stage would let me pour that truth into the world at full volume. I’ve fought for every inch of this path, and this would be the moment it all ignites—where purpose, passion, and power meet."
What would you do with $50,000?
“It’s never been about money—but $50,000 would help me turn heart into action. I’d record more songs that heal, support my band who’s believed in me, and invest in the journey ahead. I’d also give to hurricane relief for Helene—because helping others is part of my purpose. Every dollar would carry meaning, love, and intention.”
