Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: I am most proud of the work I've done for The Madame Vega. Since I became the lead singer in the band, which was about 2 years ago, I've grown so much, as a musician, lyricist, and vocalist. That growth has expanded creative mind, which is EVERYTHING to me. So far, we've released three singles that I am very proud of. I wrote majority of the lyrics and vocal melodies, and also designed and created the digital artwork, associated. I probably would not be nearly as good as an artist, if I had not stepped into this role. So, this band has been the greatest accomplishment that I am most proud of.
