'The Voice' gave me a chance to show people the side of me that is an artist. People didn't know what that would look like or sound like. It allowed people to see that potential.

I would love to put out music that was just stunning or soul-baring or whatever. But I don't think I have the voice for it.

I realized that there was much more to my voice than I'd ever been led to explore and that I could make my own songs.

I've always been drawn to all sorts of genres and all sorts of voices.

I think I have allowed my voice to experiment with the different genres. And I think that I have just really enjoyed the journey of getting to know my voice and seeing what it's capable of, what it's not capable of.

I wanted to write something in a voice that was unique to who I was. And I wanted something that was accessible to the person who works at Dunkin Donuts or who drives a bus, someone who comes home with their feet hurting like my father, someone who's busy and has too many children, like my mother.

I have my own voice and can focus only on that. I know what I like; I find my inspirations in so many other places than just online and bring that into my work.

It's great to get to make something in your own voice.

I want my voice to have purpose.
