  12. Thank you to everyone who has supported me and believed in me on my musical journey.

    A huge thank you to my NEC voice teachers, Cristi Catt and Dominique Eade,
    to my Berklee voice teacher Kathleen Flynn who encouraged me to audition for the CI master’s program,
    to Mark Zaleski, Lautaro Mantilla, and of course to Eden MacAdam-Somer and Hankus Netsky for accepting me into the program and encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone musically.

    Last, but not least, thank you so much to my family for supporting my career and for encouraging me to keep going.

    Thank you to the family members, friends, colleagues, and teachers who have believed in me more than I believe in myself.

    I love you all!
