About Me

I am a singer/songwriter and world traveller. I have literally been singing since I could speak. Travelling itself has been a huge influence on my music and I am incredibly thankful for all of the opportunities I have been given. The past few years I have been everywhere from Egypt, France, Lebanon, Italy, Jordan, Spain, Israel/Palestine, Germany, Holland, Mexico, Turkey, Canada, and all over the United States. In my free time I also paint, enjoy reading history and about foreign policy, and play classical guitar but my main passion and focus is singing and songwriting.Many things have altered my way of thinking over the past few years and so much change has occured in my life. I am grateful for these moments for they helped me grow into a more decent, spiritual, and educated person.
