Proudest 2025 Achievement:
Of all the projects I’ve taken on this year, I’m most proud of an Amazon Music Original I worked on for Black Music Month – a cover of D’Angelo’s “Brown Sugar” for the 30th anniversary of the song. It started off as a fantasy collab and grew into a massive collective effort that brought together two artists I’ve been championing for years: Dylan Sinclair and Leon Thomas. Not only did this song represent a chance to work more closely with the brilliant teams at Amazon Music, it was an opportunity to showcase homegrown talent on a global stage. What an honour to be a part of that endeavour!
One Thing I Wish I Knew at the Start of My Career:
I'm cheating here a bit! I’ve learned not one, but two equally important lessons in my career:
1. It is imperative to be your own advocate. There are so many talented, hardworking women in this industry whose contributions remain unsung because they’re afraid to make noise. But demure is dead. I’ve learned that nobody will champion you if you don’t first set the tone.
2. Authenticity is your most valuable asset. Being genuine means that sometimes you’ll be unpopular, or you’ll make mistakes. But in the music industry, the most powerful thing you can be is true to yourself. I’ve learned that my unique perspectives, ideas and experiences are worth sharing, even if they buck the trend.
