Dear Listeners & Readers,

Normally someone from my PR (public relations/don’t screw this up!) team would be writing a much better biography than this, but I wanted to be authentic and write something directly for you all in cliff-notes style so you don’t all get bored.

I was born in Abington Hospital in the state of Pennsylvania, on February 25th, 1999 to, well, my parents. They seemed pretty happy and from that day on I started exploring the world. I was not a normal child but then again who is. I spent my early childhood growing up in New Hampshire, playing all the sports that would let me on the team. I also got pretty into martial arts and tried to be the next Bruce Lee.

Fast forward a few years…

I started playing music when I was about 15 by way of stealing my dads guitars and hiding in the closet because I was the sporty tomboy who was supposed to go to college with a soccer scholarship, and my sister has a voice that sounds like it comes from the heavens. When I was 16 years old by a stroke of luck (and I mean pure luck), I was “discovered” as they say, and flown out to LA, taken to fancy dinners, rubbed shoulders with the who’s who of Hollywood, often stayed in fancy hotels with room service and no parents. For a little while it was pretty cool.

However, from every dream we must wake up, and I ended up bouncing back and forth for two years between meetings that went nowhere, writing sessions, studio sessions, artist development deals etc. etc. etc. (too many etc’s? and although everyone including my family from my small town back home thought I was the next big thing, the truth is I was failing. Nobody wanted me, partly because I didn’t want to conform to become the next “__insert poster of the moment here__”, and partly because I was still a kid. I felt like hadn’t really lived enough to write anything of value.

Fast forward a few more years…

I had enough with Hollywood and I decided to run away (didn’t exactly tell mom and dad, manager or anyone in fact), and travel the world. I even ditched my cell phone several times along the way. During my little “adventure” I’d try to secretly figure out the inner workings of who I was and what I wanted to be, as well as this whole music industry thing. I figured it can’t be all about gatekeeping, nor as scary as it seemed as a teen. I decided to write an album I could be proud of.

Fast forward a few more years…

I actually started to figure some things out, wrote some decent songs, created a new type of record label “Pineapple Recordings” that gives back to communities around the world, and came out of hiding to record my debut album “Do it now, Make it Good Later” with some awesome producers, which is coming out Oct. 3rd, 2025 at midnight. (Classic Plug, PR pre-req for writing my own bio.).

The journey to get here was not easy, and I made plenty of mistakes, but coming out the other side, I can’t wait to show you what we are doing. Big things are coming. Thanks for sticking around.

All my love and gratitude, forever.

*Why Pineapple Recordings? I happen to be deathly allergic to pineapple, and I thought it was an ironic sort of funny.
