I’ve been in show business for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories of my childhood in New York are of learning to sing melodies before I could even talk. Things were really good for a while. Then, due to circumstances out of my control, my home life fell apart. Losing my stability as a teenager really shaped me - both as an artist and a person. I’ve always tried to use my difficult experiences to create music that is honest and cathartic. Hopefully my songs will help people find meaning and connection in their lives.


My career has been extraordinarily diverse so far - I’ve been on television and in films, and performed off-broadway. Songs I’ve co-written and collaborated on have gone on to become viral hits for other artists. I was even nominated for a NY Emmy. But performing as a solo artist has been the most personally rewarding thing for me.


I like to think of my songs as melodic paintings of a moment, or a feeling, or a thought. My stories are deeply personal, but I believe listeners will be able to see a little bit of themselves in every song. I’m not sure what the future holds for me or my music, but I can’t wait to find out! And I hope you’ll come along on this journey with me! Let’s get weird 🧜‍♂️
