Bio

My main goal in life is to be successful and able to help other people. Music is a huge passion of mine and I am pursuing an Audio Production degree at Middle Tennessee State University, in hopes of pushing my music career further, and being able to positively influence people. I graduated high-school two years and two months early in March of 2022, although I get my diploma in late May of 2022. I've been in gifted and advanced classes all my life, and in high-school, AP and honors additionally to those. Going to college is a huge deal for me since I am going to be the first in my family to get a degree, and scholarships are unfortunately one of my only means to be able to afford tuition due to the fact that I have to pay for all four years, on my own. I come from a low-income family in northern Florida and I push myself harder each day to achieve my goals, so one day I can pay back my family as much as they've given me over the years in support.
