Hello there! I am head over heels about music. Been deeply in love with this beautiful form of self expression since a very young age. I've always enjoyed making music out of words and melodies I heard throughout the day, and still do; I hear music all over the place, in every circumstance I'm a part of. I like nostalgia, feel-good vibes, and relaxation. I like to play with how the waveforms hit the body. Since we are mostly made out of water, and water responds to vibrations(physically and energy wise) so easily, I like and want to make music that resonates with people and makes them feel themselves in a special sort of way. I like to call it Music for Cure, connecting people with themselves therefore generating connections between the different selves. A sense of uniqueness and belonging all at once. Genre wise, I don't feel like I fit specifically in a single one or a couple, but have an influence of diverse genres in a synergetic embrace. Everyone has a creative stance, and there are many ways of manifesting these creations. When I hear music at a live concert or when I am making a playlist( I have over 170 unique playlists, it is a dear hobby of mine), I have a tendency to primarily recognize the intentions and sentiments performed in the song other than technicality and instrumental proficiency. The primary contact to music occurs within the body( vibrations in our bodies of water, remember?), therefore it is a feeling, an energy. I use this to recognize prospective musical gems. Uniting my love for music, healthy amount of attention to detail, desire to collaborate and see people develop their talents, while I develop my own skills… It all sounds like a good deal. And that is how I take on empowering youth and giving them a hand in recognizing their own skills, disintegrating all self-judgement and encouraging positive developmental behavior as well as a chance to believe and succeed!
