Music and entertainment runs in my veins. I come from a long line of professional musicians and have years of experience as a professional vocalist. Over the years, I've attended hundreds upon hundreds of live shows and festivals. In 2018, a selection of my music journalism was archived by the US Library of Congress in their American Music archives.
