Jealous is about the aftermath of jealousy and how it makes you feel!

Yes! I had so many shows planned that were cancelled, or as I prefer to say, “postponed”..it helps me cope with it 🙂 I miss performing live so much! I just did a live/virtual show for iHeart Radio’s Dunkin’ Latte Lounge, and I have a couple of other virtual shows coming soon!

Best advice ever given?
Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together! It’s a quote by Marilyn Monroe. A very close friend sent it to me, and it is so true!
How’s a typical day in your life?
A typical day during quarantine looks a lot different than it used to. I was always on the go, and I really miss it! In the morning I have a simple skin care routine, then breakfast and take my dog for a walk . Then I check on my socials and streaming platforms and get started on my day. Some days are for creating music, some are for creating other content. I’ve been doing a lot of baking and now I’ve been painting and playing tennis. We have dinner as a family every night which has been amazing! I also make time to play the piano and I’ve been learning guitar too. I’m trying to stay as busy as possible!

It’s a big part of my life and I have been able to connect and share my music with people all over the world, so for that I am grateful. It can definitely suck you in, if you don’t set boundaries for yourself. It’s also important not to compare yourself to other peoples careers or lives in general. So just being aware of that helps me use it and enjoy the benefits!
