Artist Statement

“Creating and performing music has saved lives. I know this because it’s difficult to imagine where I would be without music. Music helped me build esteem and gave me a means of communicating with the entire world about my thoughts and feelings. It gave me a creative means to process and the experiences of youth. But this gift is anyone’s gift. It’s available to all those who have something to say and are willing to work hard for the opportunities to say it. Utilizing rhyme, simile, metaphor, and a host of other literary devices and techniques, my work provides simple, yet powerful opportunities for observation and analysis of the world, and the world that is possible.”
