The words I sing make people listen, my voice makes them stay, my meaning and intention behind the words help them to movement or stillness~

I love to create lyrics. I also like to create collections of notes using mainly acoustic instruments. Sometimes it turns into a song or sometimes the words stay as words and the music remains alone without adding lyrics. Lately I have also begun to enter into the world of Boxing which is a medium to express violence in an art form. To bring people to a new energy they've never experienced; to create a space that allows people to wonder and hope for more~
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere. Watching how plants grow, watching how animals interact with each other and how they approach me. I learn from other artists who are newer than me or from artists who are more seasoned than me. I learn from people that are new to me or from people who I had previous connections with and got back in touch after years sometimes. I love to read to learn about myself; I call it growth mindset. Books seem to go by quickly especially when they are well written.
