As a young girl, my mother introduced me to all sorts of artists from Leontyne Price and Nana Mouskouri, to John Lennon and Georges Bizet.

And over the course of two decades, I’ve been fortunate to hang with a few folks who introduced me to their preferred musical genres, from country and J-Pop to rock and trip hop, which my ears became attuned to.

(FYI, I love pretty much everything that’s out there, but EDM is my peanut butter and jam.)

Music has helped me cope with trauma, so, I’ll always be grateful to and respectful of music artists who reveal themselves through catchy beats and vulnerable lyrics that engage the mind and soothe the Soul.

For a teeny-tiny taste of my musical preferences, check out my Spotify playlist.

Happy listening!
