1) You have kicked off the year 2020 with winning the 'Artist Vision Award' from
Akademia Music Awards. How did it feel starting off the year with a win?

It always feels excellent starting any year with a win! Whether it’s an award or just self-
reflection and goal setting, it’s necessary to start the year confident and focused. Winning

this award was a great validation of my work and a sign that I’m moving in the right
direction and moving forward with purpose. I’m so grateful for the recognition and award.

2) From the 10-song record "Inside", one of your singles "Rescue Me" was mixed by
Grammy & Emmy winning engineer Clark Germain. Congratulations! What was it like
working with him on the mix of one of your very own songs?

Working with Grammy and Emmy winning engineer Clark Germain was beyond amazing. He
listened to my comments and made sure I got the sonic sound I wanted with this single.
Sometimes you work with people, and it’s just not the right energy in the room. It was like he

was reading my mind half the time. That is rare when someone gets the sound you are going for
and follows your vision and then brings it to the next level. That’s Clark all of the way. He
brought this song and my entire record to the next level, and I’m so grateful. I’m fortunate to
have had the opportunity to work with him on this single and my entire record “Inside”.
