I never had formal music training. I started producing music and DJ’ing after starting to publicly live my life as a transgender individual. I had to learn the basics of music through trial, error, experimentation, and research – much like my journey in becoming the woman I am today. In being a queer and trans person, I often found that I had to be innovative to find the best way to embody my truest self and take alternative routes to self-discovery. When my friend taught me how to use Reason, a DAW by Propellerhead, he told me “Here are the rules. Now it's time to break them.”
