NEW RELEASE

My brand new EP, an extended version of the "Reflection" 2-track album, focuses on all the things I've learned while navigating my teen years. They're an inside look at who I was and who I've become. I hope that when you listen to these songs you reflect on who you were and what you've become, and that these songs inspire you to keep growing into the person that you've always wanted to be. Never give up on yourself, never forget to embrace your beautiful and unique differences, and always follow your dreams. These songs will forever hold a special place in my heart, and I hope they can do for you what they've done for me.
