+ I am 23 years old.
+ Yes, I know I look like I'm only in high school.
+ Music is a huge passion for me.
+ I feel I'm always improving myself.
+ I do plan on recording and releasing a CD *real soon: meaning whenever I get into the studio. :)
short bio:
I have a degree in elementary education, and currently working as a full time (highly qualified) teacher. :-) Music will always be apart of my life, and so will songwriting, and I am slowly working on an album.
I'm a solo performer, but feature friends from time to time. I currently do gigs with the rest of my fellow Oahu Songwriters Group family. There are showcases the last Tuesday of every month, however I don't always play; sometimes just there to support the rest of the songwriters. :) Hopefully you'll be able to come down to one of the shows! =D
My inspiration for songwriting comes from the initial feelings and thoughts that I experience at the time I am writing a new song. Most of it involves love, which to me is one of the strongest emotions we human beings experience on a daily basis. I'm proud and happy to include this emotion in all of my songs, whether it be about discovering love, losing love, or yearning for love. *My view on sharing my music? - It isn't about popularity. It's about loving what I do, and being able to share it with those who love it too.
