What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music has been my family's legacy. It gives my Grandmother, Father and myself chances to not only entertain, but spread the positive message and unity between people with our talent.

What is your music dream?

As a person who believes in unity, my music dream has always been to travel, collaborate and perform at big stages or remote places with musicians all over the world.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

A Collaboration. I strongly believe that competition will divide, and collaboration will unite.

Spain - Chick Corea

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Queen, The Olllam, Mikie Smyth, Pedro Eustache, Dave Brubeck, John Coltrane, Glenn Miller, Johann Sebastian Bach,

Following my guts and feelings. When I feel happy or sad about some situations.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

Don't Compete, Collaborate.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Nervous! But excited and energetic as well!

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Nowadays, musicians are more towards being competitive rather than collaborative. I think if we reverse the situation things will be much better for all.

Yet to explore. But seems great at first impressions.

When people giving you fake support instead of being 'real'.
