Your recent single, “All Night", is just wonderful. What can you tell me about it?
All Night is my latest single released September 20th 2025. It sits in the 80’s pop style and was just a lot of fun to write, record, perform and collaborate on. Lyrics by yours truly and the music co-written by myself and a mate of mine, Alon Schwartz. Featuring Mark Whitfield on guitar, and mixed by Henry Reinach (who are all Berklee Alumni).
You’re a graduate of Berklee College of Music. What’s the biggest thing Berklee did for your career?
One of the most valuable things Berklee gave me was its community — not only during my time as a student, but long after graduation. Many of the people I work with today who are also Berklee alumni weren’t necessarily in my immediate circles, ensembles, or classes while I was studying. Still, it’s no coincidence that we became aware of one another’s skills and eventually crossed paths professionally. That shared foundation has created an ongoing network that continues to open doors.
Another major benefit of Berklee was the opportunity to pursue multiple disciplines at a high level simultaneously, while learning from true industry legends, provided you’re organized, motivated, and clear about your goals. During my undergraduate studies, I completed a double degree in Music Business Management and Professional Performance (with a dual principal in voice and trumpet), along with a minor in Recording and Production. I also was selected to participated in Harvard’s RAP program for four consecutive semesters, which led to an internship with an independent label that I was able to complete for academic credit.
Alongside my academic work, I was deeply involved in performance, leadership, and student employment roles. These included six Singers Showcase concerts, three Commencement performances, founding and serving as Musical Director of the Snarky Puppy Directed Study (2023–2024), and serving as Vice President of the Music Business Club from 2021 to 2023.
I regularly performed in Caf shows, 1A recitals, BPC shows, Open Day performances, and other campus events and held multiple on-campus positions. From WTD Studio Booking Manager booking all of the available studios, to working in the Studio Maintenance office working hands-on fixing and learning outboard gear. I was an orientation leader and also worked in administration in the tour guide office.
I got a lot out of Berklee because I put a lot into Berklee. The more you invest, the more you get to walk away with.
What would you say is the biggest challenge with your music career?
One of the biggest challenges is being surrounded by people who aren’t aligned with your growth. It’s important to find your people — those who take care of themselves and, by extension, respect how hard you’re working on your own career. When someone understands the discipline required for self-development, they’re far more likely to support and value that effort in others.
Being around the wrong people can be limiting, often leading to unnecessary pauses, self-doubt, and uncertainty in your own progress. Learning to step away from environments and relationships that don’t support you is essential. Surrounding yourself with people who are committed to their own growth creates a shared understanding of the work, discipline, and sacrifice it takes to build a career — and that shared mindset makes all the difference.
What do you enjoy most about performing on stage in front of an audience?
It’s real. It’s raw. And it’s exciting. Performing live means getting to share something you created from nothing with people, in the hope that it resonates with someone who’s been through — or is going through — something similar. It’s experiencing people’s reactions in real time, whether you’re performing new music, revisiting older songs, or testing ideas in front of a crowd. That immediacy and connection is one of the best parts of being an artist.
If you could cover any Disney song, which one would you choose? Why?
Covering a Disney song is especially meaningful to me because one of my long-term career goals is to voice a Disney princess in a future film. Rather than choosing an existing song, I’d love to sing one that doesn’t exist yet — a piece written to capture my own story. It would follow an Australian girl who leaves home, crosses oceans, and takes a leap of faith to pursue her dreams, choosing growth over comfort even when the outcome isn’t guaranteed. That sense of courage, curiosity, and self-discovery is at the heart of my journey, and it’s the kind of story I hope to help bring to life one day.
What are your immediate musical goals?
My immediate goals are to continue releasing new music consistently while building toward a larger body of work that fully reflects where I am artistically right now. I’m focused on expanding my live performance presence through touring, deepening collaborations with artists who inspire me, and connecting with audiences in more meaningful ways. I’m also excited to continue working with pro-audio brands and creative partners such as Audio Technica, Eventide Audio and Black Lion Audio whose tools and values genuinely align with my process. At this stage, it’s about growth — refining my sound, broadening my reach, and staying grounded in why I create in the first place.
