I am comitted to furthering my musical skill to continue the tradition of story telling through song that has been integral to society for generations. Throughout history, many stories have been silenced, whether that be through political and societal opression, circumstantial inabillity, or a lack of access to resources. I want to put the abilities that I have cultivated and will continue to cultivate into helping becoming a vehicle through which these stories may be told to a nieve or willfully ignorant society. In telling these stories, I hope to bring awareness to and better the circumstances under which people like those in my work live. I want my work to make people feel seen and heard and represented, especially when they often aren't in today's popular media and I want to broaden my horizons to learn about different cultures and identities that I haven't experienced in a respectful and valuable way.
