I just feel passionately about a few things and particularly about helping artists get off the ground.

I grew up with artists.

Many artists have not been able to realise their fondest projects. My role is to help them.

Many young artists, they look at the art world and think they can make a lot of money.

Artists are very young, and say, Um, ok, to these industry dudes.

Everything we do helps the new artists in the long run.

Well there is a lot of work here for younger and older musicians now. Our Ministry of Culture has now really embarked on changing things for artists, and it is getting much better. We just have to organize ourselves as artists, and then things will be better.

I was looking at making a shift in my career. I've been so blessed I'd like to be able to give that back. If I could find young artists, young performers I can nurture to have a career I would really like that.

I came across a lot of young composers who have got passion but lack experience. I want to help them out.

I think I'm making a difference for a lot of young singers.
