"Calm Down"

When did you first discover theater/what was your first experience?: I played the white rabbit in a jukebox musical in fourth grade. I was really shy and I had a solo, and it was really life-changing for me.
When/how did you become a writer? Is there a writer, show, or text that particularly inspired you?: The first song I wrote was back in 2018, when I was 11. I was moved by the MeToo movement and by w I felt compelled to write about it.
How do you describe your style/work?: I think what sets my music apart is that it’s more pop-influenced. Not only do I love musical theatre, but I get inspired by many different artists.
What is most rewarding to you about writing music?: I love being able to write about stories that can reach audiences on a personal level. I like creating an experience that people will remember.
