As a child, she started playing keyboards, impressing her grandmother with Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots are Made for Walking” on her toy Magnus Chord Organ. Growing up, she performed in malls and stores, crafting her songs and album covers. This early passion sparked her career in both music and graphic design.
Besides her love for progressive music like Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Yes, and Genesis, she was also deeply influenced by her hometown band, Kansas, during her formative years.
