Music has always been the heartbeat of my life. From childhood, our home was filled with songs, laughter, and rhythm. I joined the choir early on and studied piano up to Grade Eight. music was simply a part of who I was. It gave me comfort, confidence, and a place to belong.

As I got older, musical theatre took over my world. Performing gave me an outlet to explore emotions and express myself freely. Growing up in the 90s, I often felt different from my friends and struggled to understand or accept my identity as a lesbian. It wasn’t easy to come out back then, so I turned to the stage. Acting became my escape—it let me become someone else for a while, someone fearless.
When I was twenty-one, my world was shaken by the loss of my mom. She was my biggest supporter, the one who cheered at every performance and always encouraged my music. After she passed, I couldn’t play the piano anymore—it felt too painful without her there to listen. But her loss also taught me how short and fragile life can be. I realized I needed to live my truth, so I came out and started to embrace the person I really was.
That decision eventually led me into the world of drag. What started as a bold experiment turned into a lifelong passion. Over the past twenty years, drag has taken me around the world, allowed me to perform with incredible artists, , given me a sense of community and pride I never imagined possible and also brought me back to my best friend.
But the story didn’t end there. I wanted to explore a new side of music writing and recording my own songs. Partnering with So Fierce Music and with support from TD’s incredible funding, I’m now working on my second single. It feels like coming full circle, back to that kid who sat at a piano while her mother listened to her in the kitchen. Now I get to share that music with everyone.
