Can you talk to us about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned? Looking back, would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
No, it hasn’t been a smooth road.
My biggest obstacle is dealing with the ups and downs that come along with being an independent artist, but I still appreciate every part of my journey thus far. I look forward to my future while also appreciating where I am in my present. I also wouldn’t change any of my past experiences because all of my experiences have molded me into the person that I am today.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am a singer. I also write music, produce music, and vocal produce/vocal arrange! I also curate R&B concerts called “It’s Happening!”
I am proud of “It’s Happening” because my business partner, Jandé, and I started this idea in my kitchen and it has turned into something so beautiful! I enjoy providing independent artists with a safe space to share their talent and gain visibility in Atlanta!
