She is excited about her future in SLPS as well as Like a Rose.  While she clearly has a passion for music her true goal in life is to be able to use her God-given talents to inspire and ignite a desire in others to become their best selves.

Our goal is to remind families that we are all like roses, we all have thorns, those things that hurt us. However, a rose needs a thorn to survive, and like a rose, we need our thorns to grow into the flowers we were called to be.
