Equal parts Passion for the art and craft of making music, Relentless Drive to have your voice, your songs heard and Pit bull-like determination to latch on to a goal and never let it go

Independent thought and original ideas about the music and how to present yourself and the music

Courage. Everyone’s a bit afraid especially when your career starts to grow and you get better known.

Talent – whatever that is, is part of the package but certainly not the only ingredient

Michael J Fox is quoted as saying, ‘We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.’

Open mindedness, flexibility and willingness to work as hard and as long as it takes

Dream Team of voice teacher, dance/movement coach, acting coach, producer, manager, entertainment lawyer, stylist, publicist – and probably a few others

100% belief in your ability and the wisdom to not listen to negative people

Constantly learning and growing must be your motto. You are never ‘done’

Luck is being ready when the opportunity is presented to you

There’s so much competition that you have to be outstanding in every way. Don’t neglect any of the ingredients.
