No Song for You. Content Warning.
I didn’t listen to my own music for 5 years. 5 years is a long time to not listen to your own music. I didn’t even find new music. There was zero music. Don’t get me wrong, I heard music. It just wasn’t mine and I didn’t hear it. You would’ve thought I sawed my own ears off.

In my Headphones. Second Place in The Soundtrack of Your Year Challenge. Top Story - December 2024.
In my mind, my year is split into three distinct chunks. The first bit of the year was consumed with putting together my first full-length ballet. The hours I spent finding the perfect music, listening to everything on repeat, shaped my first four months of 2024. A combination of classical and worship music, it helped lift my spirits during the end of our cold Alaskan winter.
