Director Statement

I believe music to be its own unique entity, in that there is a magic in the combination of rhythm, chords, a beautiful melody, and meaningful lyrics that can strike a chord in someone - impact someone's thoughts and emotions in a way that spoken words could never do alone. My hope is that my songs are easy-listening among a wide demographic - pop and catchy, but also make people reflect on the central message. Directing my own music videos has allowed me to further this goal in bringing the feelings behind the lyrics of my music to life.
