"I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing", a quote from Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin which I strongly stand by. Music is something I've loved since I was little, since then I have explored through so many different genres and artists which has broadened my knowledge and amplified my love for music so much, it made me realise the music industry was where I needed to be - but I wasn't good at performing, so I organised my first interview with a local band and have been independently producing creative content since.
