Music has always been the foundation of my life. My childhood was painted with ‘90s R&B filling the rooms of my home, lyrics scribbled in and out of composition notebooks, dresses dragging along choir risers and a song always stuck in my head. My parents' love story blossomed in their middle school choir. I’ve always felt the most myself singing, and anytime I was feeling lost or having a hard time, music was there to ground me.
