I originate from the UK and fell in love with the USA when I was a kid and have never gotten over it. I never thought of myself as a singer just a humble songwriter. When I looked across the Pond and saw the amazing talent in this part of the world, I just had to come here and try and be a part of it, however small.

Whatever happens, I feel so blessed just to be here.
