This EP is made possible with the love, support, nudges, and affirmations of so many people. Thank you to all of the friends that champion my work each and every day, by answering my endless questions, sending emails on my behalf, lifting me up when I’m feeling weak, and offering suggestions when I don’t know what to do. Thank you to the incredible musicians, both new and deeply familiar, that gently carried my music and rounded out its sound. Thank you to Stephen, for believing this project was possible, and seeing it to completion with grace, patience and kindness. Thank you to my educators, for the invaluable teachings I’ve received both in the classroom and out in the real world. Thank you to my partner, for being hype-woman, critic, muse, and caretaker, all in one. And thank you to my family, for holding space for my art, despite it being so different from the American dream they had in mind.
