Best is that it’s very diverse and there’s a lot to experience so it gives me even more fuel to be creative. Worst thing is the weather!

Addictive, emotional, intense.

 

How did you start your career in music?

I’ve always sung and at secondary school, I uploaded a video to YouTube – loving you by Minnie Ripperton and from that, I found my Management.

 

Were the people around you supportive of your decision on working as a creative?

Yes, my family and friends have been super accommodating, thankfully.

To have as many people listening and relating to my music as possible.

Strong!

Were there any local female creatives that you looked up to when you were growing up?

Amy Winehouse lived very near me and listening to her music from a young age definitely inspired me to want to make music and create.

 

Are there any challenging aspects of being a female in your industry?

We’re underrepresented, we have to work doubly as hard as men to be heard, and to prove we are worthy of the recognition and we are constantly being pitted against other women…I could go on.

 

Be persistent and stand by what you believe in.

Do you have any advice to young women who are aspiring to work in your field?

Be persistent and stand by what you believe in. If you feel something is wrong, don’t do it. It sounds simple but it’s so important. Having an inner sense of self and moral compass that no matter what you must listen to is what will keep you sane.
