“When I began to write music, I did it with the intention of finding a place. Finding out who I really am, and inviting people to experience the cultures that I have been brought up in. The result is music that touches the younger generation as well as our older generations and binds together people of all cultures, race and communities. It really is a reflection of the melting pot that is today’s society.”
