12. Movies or TV Shows: I like TV series, but hate having to wait a week for the next episode to come out
13. CDs or Vinyl: Vinyl

The first song I ever performed was at my high school variety show when I was about 15. It was Anything John Mayer, probably 21. What was the first song you performed in front of an audience?
All Of Me by John Legend!
22. Who is the celebrity you'd most like to meet?
Lennon Stella. I've mentioned her so much she probably thinks I'm obsessed. And to that I say, I might be.
23. Which TV show you'd most love to hear one of your songs on?
Probably Grey's Anatomy because I feel like my songs perfectly fit that theme. I would love to have a song on an edgy show such as Euphoria, so I may try to explore a different style for that.
24. What was the first concert you went to?
Wow... probably when I was way young! But the first concert I actually remember was Demi Lovato when I was in high school. My friends thought I was crazy because it was a sit-down venue and I stood up the whole time and was crying.
25. What is your favourite social media platform to interact with fans?
For me right now, it's TikTok. I love sharing my ideas and songwriting and that's definitely the best platform for me to go about it. I would like to interact with more people on Instagram though!
26. What is your go-to karaoke song?
27. What is your hidden talent?
Gravity on repeat. Or some old Avril Lavigne with my friends. I'm 95% sure I can still do a backflip from when I was in competitive gymnastics. I may be sore for the next week though.
28. What is your favourite ice cream flavour?
Oreo or coffee. Or even better, combine them both into a milkshake with a little caramel and it's AMAZING.
29. What song always makes you want to dance?
Anything Megan Thee Stallion or Doja Cat. When I do anything I need to get hyped up for I listen to them on repeat.
30. #1 creative outlet, besides music?
Something I don't do enough is read but I love it. If I get a good book I won't put it down or watch anything until I finish it. Also, I feel like reading for me can inspire new songs, even if they are crime books.
