What was your first concert? New Kids on the Block (N.K.O.T.B for my fellow 80’s babies) at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, CA! When I found out I was able to go, I burst into tears. I loved Jordan McKnight.

Who is your favorite female-identifying musician? I was fortunate to have seen Alicia Keys at an outdoor arena in the early 2000’s and fell in LOVE with her vocals and piano-playing skills. I’ve seen her multiple times since and just think she’s an awesome person and musician!

Who or what empowers you? I love being able to help people. I love adding positivity to someone’s day, week, month. I love contributing “good” to the world in sometimes “not-so-good” times. All these things empower me and keep me going!
