I was born in a city where rhythm is the way of life and every person has a song to sing. So music went from a passion to a craft. I took hold of the melodies constantly driving around my head, I embraced my intense personality, and welcomed the butterflies in my stomach going crazy whenever I performed in front of a crowd. I love music because it has that kind of power. That’s why I write my songs, because they help me understand my own thoughts and emotions and I hope they do the same for you.
