One of my newest songs! This video was my entry for the most recent round of NPR's Tiny Desk Contest.

"Town of Glass" is about all the memories you make in a place and how hard it can get to remember them all. It's about wanting to leave your hometown and discover something new.

This performance is from Round 2 of Alice Cooper's Proof is in the Pudding Music Competition.

This song is nameless, but that seems fitting. It's about a nameless person, and over the years this person has changed. It's a song to whoever you're currently working to trust at a given point in time, and that can always change in the future.

This performance is from the Semi-Finals of Alice Cooper's Proof is in the Pudding Music Competition.

"That Girl" calls out cheaters. It basically says, "think before you act. You have a lot to lose."

This one is posted in several places online, but here's a solid video of it that my friend and I recorded for NPR Tiny Desk auditions.

Here's a live performance of "Singing to Venus" from the Hyatt Untapped Live and Local showcase in December 2019.

This song is about losing someone, whether they've passed, moved, or moved on. It captures the deep longing for the time you did have with them.

I wrote this one in the summer of 2020 in the midst of the spike in protests across the U.S. for the Black Lives Matter movement. It's about the effect that police brutality has on black children.

The structure of "Ariel's Song" is still changing every time I perform it, and that's one of my favorite things about it. This was the original video I posted at the song's debut, though you can find other performances of it on Instagram.

I wrote this song for a friend who lost her life to suicide. I think it's so important to talk about how isolating and challenging life can get, and how it's usually harder than someone suffering will ever let on. The lyrics are all speculation, asking "what happened?" and wishing to go back in time and fix it with the sufferer.

This song is also so personal to me because I've struggled with suicidal thoughts myself. I hope "Ariel's Song" can show people who have never dealt with these thoughts and feelings the toll they can take on a person.

"Ariel's Song" is the most raw song I've shared to date, and I think the message is one of the most important I've written about. It's by far my most successful in terms of audience reception. This is the only performance of it so far — in my bedroom, for a camera. I hope to share more of it soon.
