Inspired by everyday real life situations, her words will coax you to close your eyes and be taken away on a lyrical journey by each line.“Everything inspires me. I watch people’s body language. I see love in the most purest, simplest forms everywhere I go. When I see couples holding hands and laughing with each other, it inspires me to write about love in the most sincere way. When I see a mother showing love and care to her child, I’m inspired to write about love in the most sentimental way. People that do not show love towards each other, inspires me to write about the pain of relationships. I’m also inspired by the beautiful gift God gives us each day…nature especially, water. It is my serenity. I think best when I’m around it. I’m inspired by those who overcome the hard challenges that life throws at us. It makes me write songs about strength and hope.”Her lyrical skills vary across a variety of musical needs including: writing song lyrics and providing melodies to instrumental tracks for professional recording artists and music producers, writing hooks and providing melodies for rappers, and writing TV show theme lyrics, commercial jingles and lyrics for movie soundtracks.

The disappointments, successes and failures in this business taught me to educate myself about the industry and the craft of lyric writing. Just because you have the ability to write, play an instrument or sing, it doesn't mean you don't still have to practice and challenge yourself. If you want to be in this business, my advice to you is to have faith, be patient and believe in yourself (especially when others don't) always give it your all and no matter what...never ever ever give up!”
