Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yes, I play live and I love it! I've played at various venues in NYC, Atlantic City and in Europe. Usually my show consists of 2-4 dancers, an mc/hype man, and backup singers.
Your musical influences
There is no particular genre of music that my heart favors. I like it all from R&B, Hip Hop, Funk, Rock, to Latin, Jazz, & Classical. My father would play a Mozart record one day and Earth, Wind & Fire the next. I was fortunate to be exposed to such diversification. Nevertheless, I find inspiration from artists such as: Gwen Stefani, The Black Eyed Peas, Beyonce, Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Shakira, Nelly Furtado, & Lauren Hill, ... the list goes on.
