I don't do:
Negative attitudes during the creative process. I find it toxic and demotivating. When we create, we're aiming to create something amazing.

Experimenting with different genres my music is about love, relationships, fantasy and experiences throughout my life.

Learning from those around me and having real conversations with artists and musicians, which allows everyone in the room to see things from more than one perspective.

Valerie by Amy Winehouse.

My keyboard switched off while doing a live recording, the show had to go on and I just had to smile and mime until the sound team sorted out the technical issue.
What is your most treasured possession?
My laptop.
It’s your round what are you drinking?
Tequila! It’s the best of both worlds.

I'd want to be a psychologist.

Zoe Kravits because she is pretty empowering in personality and on screen. She also looks like she can kick butt!

‘Awe.’
Favorite Fashion Garment:
A bulky sneaker or combat boot
Your greatest achievement:
My first official song that I released in 2019 called Intimate under the alias, “Mason.” It was a song about empowering women and their bodies. A reminder that no one was or is entitled to or in control of their bodies but them.
What do you complain about most often?

Take out my phone and take a video of the stage and the crowd. This allows me to reminisce.
