What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?
I always had an interest in music, I remember joining the marching band in elementary school and learning how to play the snare drum. I liked it so much I wanted to learn how to play a drum set so, my uncle Greg bought me one. One of my sisters friends showed me how to play something then after that I was able to pick things up and create my own drum beats. When I was 16 years old a friend gave me a guitar and I knew right then and there that I wanted to learn how to play it. While I was learning to play guitar I started singing and that’s how I got to where I am today!
If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?
