A ballad for all the high-achieving students who hate the academic pressure but can't let it go

Homework

A love song to the first person who ever loved me. Thank you for being my person mom :).

More Than I Love You

A song for all the gifted students, the ones who grew up on praise and awards, who wake up with nightmares of losing that status

Firework

the story of a girl in love with how her relationship used to be rather than the way it is now

The First Time

A big middle finger to the government, if you will

Turn Around

This is a very personal song for me. Growing up with a stutter and being speech therapy at a young age put ideas into my mind that my voice was flawed. That I was flawed. This song explores the effect those views have on me today. I am no longer in speech therapy, and I am actively working through the dramas and negative thoughts that have come with my sixteen years of trying to fix my voice. Today, I still stutter, but I am not flawed.

I'm Back

As someone who grew up with a chronic illness, so much of my youth and health and innocence was taken from me at a young age. However, the one thing no one can ever take from me is my song.

My Song

To my person: Thank you for all that you have done for me throughout the years. You are my other half (my better half), my best friend, and my soulmate. To whatever end, Gunnar. I love you.

To Whatever End

A ballad of growing up, making mistakes, falling in love, falling out of love, and doing it all over again

Getting Better

In honor of my high school choir teacher, who shaped me into the person I am today :)

Remember the Music

A high-achieving, romance-reading, anxious teenager who writes songs for lovers of Taylor Swift and Noah Kahan
